This is my 6th project--a quilt for my
great nephew for Christmas 2010.
It is a cowboy theme.
The quilt turned out much larger than I planned

(it is my largest piece so far).
I started with a pattern but soon discarded
it and worked my own design.
I used the “pillowcase style” to pull it together.
Denise (Cozy Quilt Shoppe) showed me how
to tie a quilt so I tied this one
instead of stitching in the ditch.

The pockets (my favorite part of the quilt) are from
Laura’s jeans and the kerchief I found in her clothes bin.

I love how it turned out. It is a large and warm quilt.
I hope my nephew gets a lot of comfort from it
(as soon as his mother is tired of cuddling with it).
