Boy zone

One of my three brothers celebrated his 40th birthday recently. My mum was keen to make him a quilt for the occasion.

He is a farmer, so something unfussy, practical, non-floral and dark was in order. This is a very simple pattern and uses plaid fabrics. They look like they could be flannel, but they aren't. It was purchased as a kit from Marally Craft .

Belinda at Eucalypt Ridge Quilting  quilted this beautifully in a 'boy-friendly' edge-to-edge design called 'Quill' by Anne Bright .
