    Default Thin Blue Line
    My daughter requested this as a gift for her friend's wedding. Both the bride and groom are police officers. It's roughly 77" x 66". I used tiny blue/white chevron minkee for the backing and 3" strips for binding that were leftover fabrics from the blacks. I think it turned out really nice. It's bigger than the example she asked me to pattern this from and has a lot more quilting. Though I did try to quilt it simply as to not draw away from the quilt theme. Finished pictures were hard to take because it was dark and rainy all Saturday.

    ​Great quilt and sentiment! The only thing standing between us and chaos.
