Today’s Feature: My First Queen Size Quilt!

This is the first large quilt I ever made.It was a wedding gift for my cousin (basically my brother) Dan and his wife Elaine. I’ll be the first to admit that they didn’t actually receive the finished quilt until after their wedding….but I did make up for a late quilt gift with matching pillow shams that were given as an anniversary gift.

Of course, this photograph was taken recently, featuring their rather handsome son (and my nephew) Liam. I guess quality craftsmanship is definitely shown here….that quilt is literally never off of their bed. They use it all year round and it (obviously) gets daily abuse of an almost two year old romping around on it.
