Our niece, Wanda in Virginia is an avid Redskins fan. She called me up in January and asked it I could please make her a blanket (quilt) for her bed using Washington Redskins fabric. So like the good Auntie I am, I ordered some official NFL fabric from Joann's (best price around), once I saw the fabric I thought what the heck can I do with this. Thank goodness for the Quilting Board forum - someone there had made a quilt that also featured a large uncannily print using the Garden Maze pattern from the Quilt Cache website. I knew right then and there that this was the pattern to use. Below you will see how nicely the quilt did turn out. I made 2 pillowcase to coordinate in the wine with black and a bit or Redskins fabric.
Thus, another quilt is ticked off this years to do list!
I also live in Virginia and I'm a huge Redskins fan. That quilt would look outstanding in my guest room, AKA The Redskins Room. Gorgeous work! HTTR!
