Dan's Graduation Quilt

Jimmys good buddy Dan graduated from Virginia Tech in May.

He's like family.

I love that kid. 

I pieced a churn dash quilt for him in Florida. 

I had every intention of quilting it sooner. 

But when I got home, I got busy. 

Being Mayzee

And Mom

And Mrs Murray

And the Orlando quilt happened so I had to meet that deadline 

And I was starting to get a social life

I'm nipping that in the bud 

Excuses Excuses

Anyway, I finished quilting it today. 

I used my longboard swirls cause I hope he'll use it a lot and it's a sturdy design. 

I used batiks, Blues & Oranges cause he loves Syracuse athletics. 

And we live in Syracuse & I want him to come visit us. 

And Virginia Tech colors really don't speak to me. 

Don't judge. 

Here's the front

The back is a brown paisley. 

Let's see how long it takes me to get a binding on this puppy.

When he finally gets it, I hope he likes it!

Kindness!
