I finally got this picnic blanket done. This is the one with the cotton duck on the back. It was a bit of a challenge & it is very sturdy stuff. In fact my wonderful husband not only put all 3 layers on the frame to be quilted he later came along & decided to help me quilt a few rows himself! This is indeed a quilt made from the two of us to our daughter & son-in-law & their family. They do alot of things outdoors & since this blanket has the cotton duck on the back they can sit on the ground without any fear of grass picking up through to them.Or anything else either LOL

I think that it will be nice to have this in the bag that I made too! Now if I could come up with a vegetable or fruit label for the back I will be all set!

I always liked those fruit and veggie prints but could never figure out anything to use them for. This is a perfect picnic blanket and it turned out great. they will surely love anduse it for a long time.

It's lovely and I'd have a hard time putting it on the grass. The quilt blocks are lovely for the outdoors and nature.

Loralye, this is just such a great project that you did for your daughter and her family. It is just so pretty...only problem is that when you take it on a picnic, I would have a hard time deciding what to eat first...the quilt blocks or what was in the basket to eat...lol...you and hubby did a great job...
