Eric's Quilt

My third quilt, made from:

 

www.handmadebyalissa.com/sparks-baby-quilt-pattern/

 

I made this for my brother, so my goal was a "masculine" color scheme. This was my first try at freehand stipple quilting and I though it was tough! They start out nice and tight and then near the middle of the quilt are large and loopy. The white thread is really visible on the navy background so my little mistakes are more noticible than I would have liked.

 

This quilt was a lot of fun to make though and my brother was thrilled with the gift. I am definitely going to try another with a more girly color scheme!
