Feb. ALYOF achieved!
He's doing really well. He got let out early even.
I actually got a few pics before it was handed off.
The back:
I hand quilted on it using perle. Used pretty much all but bits of my comma stash. I love how happy it is, and how it's more masculine in tone.
The pattern is a variation on the Mosaic Tiles pattern from Modern Bee. The original plan was to make the blocks monochromatic, but I liked the mixed colors better. It reminded me a bit of Tetris, and he's a gamer, so it was a better fit.
There's nothing better than a crinkly quilt to recuperate under. mmmmm...fabric hugs.
It looks fantastic! I know your friend will love it!
