One of my three brothers celebrated his 40th birthday recently. My mum was keen to make him a quilt for the occasion.
He is a farmer, so something unfussy, practical, non-floral and dark was in order. This is a very simple pattern and uses plaid fabrics. They look like they could be flannel, but they aren't. It was purchased as a kit from Marally Craft.
Belinda at Eucalypt Ridge Quilting quilted this beautifully in a 'boy-friendly' edge-to-edge design called 'Quill' by Anne Bright.
Really beautiful. Nice and clean design and perfect for a farmer!
