    Default My First Quilt

    This is the first quilt I made last year. I used 100 of my husband's Boy Scout patches from when he was growing up.

    Awesome! My twin DGS are Eagle Scouts. What a great way for your DH to keep all his patches on view and close to his heart. It is a great gift for him as it will remind him of all the hours and hard work that it took him to earn all those badges. You are a special lady. I know it was a "labor of love" to make it. For your first quilt, I say, "Job well done"!!!!

    Now that's a future heirloom quilt!

    The khaki and print fabrics were great choices.
