Man Quilt

Another man quilt.

The request is black and red...again.  This time I felt like that meant and no other color.  But I get to choose the backings.

I thought I would just use the “sticks” design.  They were inspired by a photo on Pinterest https://pin.it/4kbQMYB

I wanted them on a larger scale.

But just the sticks was too blah.  I decided some economy blocks thrown into the mix gave it more interest.

When the top was all together I took notice of the backside and the variety of the red fabric wrongsides.  I find all those light colored backings on the red fabrics rather fascinating.

Once again, no froofroo for these men of mine.



I thought while making it that I wasn’t liking it too much.  Man stuff can be boring.

But I do like it very much in the end.

It looks kind of like it could be a game board.

Just need some large game pieces and a set of rules.



 It’s quite different from any quilt design I’ve made so far.

It measures 75” X 63”

Off it goes to the man.
