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.

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.

How wonderful! And hand quilting too
I love this bright and beautiful quilt and you're right, even though it is brightly coloured it is also very masculine :)
The handquilting is perfect and I like fabric hugs too. Man I should have bought comma.

It's a really grew quilt. I like the back as much as the front! I'm sure it will be much loved!
