    Default for the men...

    This panel is from the Troy Corp - it's Riverwood Collection. I found it as a kit when searching for fishing-themed quilts.

    A young man who is the son of a dear friend is getting this in honor of the upcoming birth of a baby girl. I'm almost finished with the one I made for the baby - also fishy. (Sweet wife must share his - there's a limit somewhere, right?) Maybe strange to make a quilt for the Daddy AND the baby, but it's also strange for a teenager to mow someone's grass just cause it needs it - and this young man did that for me throughout his high school years. So ... new Daddy (and Mommy) - here it comes!

    What beautiful gifts, and love that fishing panel. Have been trying to find something for a son-in law, and that would work perfect.

    Great quilt. After seeing some panel quilts on here, I'm thinking about making one myself. Thanks for the idea.
