Remake of son's favourite quilt, originally made in 1990

[ATTACH=CONFIG]597654[/ATTACH]

I finally finished a remake of an old quilt that was my son's security blanket as he grew up that is now, sadly, little more than rags. For his 27th birthday he asked me to make it again because he missed his old quilt. So, dear son, here it is! It's hand pieced and hand quilted. Thanks for taking a look.

It looks fabulous. I can see why your son loved it so much. It is bold and graphic and masculine. And, the best compliment you could receive was a request for a repeat. So, two

mom. You did good. By the way, enjoyed your quilt story and love the pattern!

A request for a remake has got to be the best of best compliments. That's a wonderful quilt & he will enjoy it forever.

Your son will love this quilt! And you hand pieced and quilted it, too. Just saw the other quilt you hand pieced and quilted. Amazing and both beautiful.

What a beautiful quilt for your son to love. It has a special story. Love your helpers. The quilt looks like it is floating in air.
