Paul's Quilt

I began this quilt shortly after Christmas. The batiks were purchased the day after Christmas at Eshter's Fabrics on Bainbridge Island.  Love this shop!

I had wanted to work with the Dresden Plate pattern, but something really fun.  Not too girlie.  Not overly traditional. So I used a black batik as the background fabric.

And I had this crazy idea for the back using some of the extra 'blades' from the front.  I love how saturated the colors are.

I used a wool batting.  I wanted this to be a super toasty warm quilt as it was going to a very special person.

It is a "lap/take a nap with room to tuck in" blanket.

I am especially fond of the back.  Seems like a party!

Because it always is!
