    Default Have I ever shown this???
    Several years ago, I got started going to Good Will. I got to noticing all the really nice flannel shirts for men. A lot had barely been worn. The Good Will at that time would have really awesome sales...I would get a flannel shirt for $1.60 a lot of times. I very seldom bought at their full price and I mainly limited myself to sizes Large and X-Large. This quilt was a result of those purchases.

    It is a skimpy full sized quilt...I quilted it on a Pfaff Tiptronic 1171....not a great job of quilting. I think this is the either the last or next to last quilt I quilted on a domestic machine before getting my Juki 98Q.

    I love it! Great colors and I always like the look of plaids in a quilt! Good job.

    Ah! A "manly" quilt! You did those shirts better than hanging on a rack or in the back of a closet. Thank you for this great inspiration!

    Hi Rose, I really like your quilt. I have a Pfaff 1171 and I love it. I haven't quilted larger than a twin sized quilt on it though. I usually make baby quilts for charity, anyway. Your quilt looks so comfy.
