A Work in Progress {a quilt for my husband}

I was trying to think of a thoughtful graduation present for my husband and thankfully THIS quilt found its way to my computer screen, just in time too. I ordered 12, 20x20 handkerchiefs (4 London, 4 NYC, and 4 Paris) and went to work the minute the box arrived. I sewed the 12 'blocks' together and backed the quilt top with a soft, cozy, chocolate brown fabric. Not my first choice from an aesthetic standpoint, but I really wanted him to use it. We have a lot of blankets around, and he generally reaches for the fleecy ones (while I prefer cotton quilts), so this was the perfect compromise. The hand quilting took forever, but I love the way it turned out.

I rarely document my works in progress, so I figured I'd try this time. Final product images coming soon.
