Brown can be beautiful

In February this year I cut up just over 2000 brown and gold bricks for my turn at Scrapbag Quilters. I finally got my project completed from that day. There was a lot of grumbling about the brown but I was trying for guy quilts that were larger. And in that aspect I made my target. My quilt is just a lap size quilt but it should keep someone warm. Our Scrapbag group meets next week and we will be tying a few quilts that day and celebrating the season at lunch time. Piecefully, Joanne

    It can be hard to come up with good "man" quilts. Your looks like it will be perfect for that role.

    I'm not usually a brown fabric person. (Love blue quilts.) However, the browns in this quilt are so rich and beautiful. I love it.
