Sheboygan, Wi.
The center block is called Fanfare and the corner blocks are Wisconsin
Star. I changed the Wisconsin Star a little to match the border.
I might make this one for a son-in-law who is a huge Packer fan.

This is quilt for a soccerfan!
I used a readymade Layout from the EQ library.

It's a Guy Thing
It's almost hunting season and the hunters are in their blind looking
for the "big buck". But the deer are busy checking out camp.

A great scrappy quilt
Plano Texas

This is a representation of a real quilt. I'm quilting the last borders.
I made this quilt this summer and fall for my son, who was raised
in East Tennessee and is a die-hard Vol fan. He's just moved out,
and its been a labor of love. Definitely a guy thing. The first quilt
I have designed from scratch. I planned it a few years ago but only
recently felt advanced enough to execute it. Queen size extra long.
I'm through with orange for a while. :-)

Dip into your fabric stash for this quilt. Numerous scrappy prints
will accentuate the strong, graphic lines in this design.

This quilt summarizes the passions of one of my friends: forest,
sea (sorry didn't have time to draw the velvet swimming crab!) and
maths! The leaves are from EQ6 library. All the other designs are
my own (mushrom and seashells were reused from previous challenges).
Formulas are real! and they all have a meaning but it took me a while
to draw them!
Cheers from France

My father loved painting as a hobby. Bat (from EQ6 library) is the
symbol from the Spanish province where he was born (Valencia) and
that's why I choose the warm colors. 3 L for his name: Lorenzo Laparra
Lopez.
|
Created with help from my USMC husband Gerald. I also included lighthouses,
something he collects.
|
Used Gerald's favorite color, pink, and added it around the USMC
blocks and the Mariner's Compass.

I wanted to do "Trains, and Boats, and Planes,"
but I didn't like the train blocks I found. But all three items seemed
like toys in a boy's toybox.

The blocks in this quilt represent the different flags used in Formula

The car motif is traced from a colouring in image found on the internet.

For me, "It's a Guy Thing" had to include something about
astronomy as my 'guy' is very much into this. I found pictures of
an observatory and a telescope and traced them to make the silhouettes,
then put them against a sky full of stars to be observed.

The occasional plaid quilt warms the quilting heart. I am thinking
that this would be a perfect nephew quilt.

Aside from working with 'tricky plaid' this should be a fairly easy
quilt to execute if paper pieced.

The border fabric is called Friends of Winter and it inspired this
winter quilt. I'm making it in flannel fabrics.

This quilt is in progress, a result of an Ohio Star swap using fall
colors. I sent the blocks with the maple leaf centers. My husband
walked by while I was in the design phase and really liked it. It
is his "guy" quilt.
Because I designed this not knowing what I would receive in return,
the actual quilt varies somewhat from the colorway I used to design
it. Everything else remains the same. I plan to make those bow ties
in the border 3D. That is the easiest way I know to make them.

I used the Arabic Lattice block from Block Base and used plaids for
the fabric lap quilt for my DH I preferred to use the solids here
to minimize the size of the attachment.

The simple Interwoven Squares block has always intrigued me. I felt
it would give a masculine feel to a quilt. The Grandmother's Brooch
block is set on top of quilt in Layer 2.
