    Default Hunting Themed Quilt for a girl

    A friend of my daughter just graduated high school and is planning to become an orthopedic surgeon. But she has a love of hunting, so I focused on that for her grad quilt. I used the pattern "Perfect Ten" from Swirly Girls Design.

    1. Front of quilt. I shopped around and picked up camouflage-themed fabrics as well as appropriate blenders.
    2. Found one fabric with a hunting dog that looks just like the recipient's hunting dog!
    3. Back of Quilt. I used a "Realtree" print from Joann's.
    4. Close up of the quilting; I have the best longarmer ever!

    Your fabric choices have made me take a second look at this pattern. I was always a bit put off by the very high contrast focus square frames which seemed to me overdone. Your choices, however, have brought this to a new high and I'm going back to the pattern for a second look. Lovely! Lovely!
