    Default New use for Quilt

    Yesterday my DH came into my studio and said he needed something to cover the pool table to keep the dust off of it. I didn't really want to make something out of the fabric on my shelves (not that I didn't have enough to use) so I asked him if he wanted to use one of our quilts. I picked out a "manly" looking quilt for his Man Cave. I like the way it looks. [ATTACH=CONFIG]514372[/ATTACH]

    What a great way to have a quilt displayed and used!
    I really like the arrangement of log cabin blocks on that quilt, it is one I haven't seen before.

    Thank you, Rebecca. I made this quilt from scraps in my stash.

    I hope those men find a place other than the floor to put it while playing! Such a nice quilt.
