Only my son 6 foot 5 could hold up the quilt he had requested and still not show it all. Same borders at each end. Dimension 8 by 5 feet.

Angie this is a beautiful quilt, your son will like him. I like the french braid design, it is good for using scraps. Your color choice is great. How have you quilted this big quilt?

Free motion on my Elissimo. Not perfect but lots of love. He loved it. He said no more feet sticking out at the bottom.

sorry I took a closer look & I can see that it is not a quilt as you go! You did a terrific job. ~hugs~

I did free motion quilting on the Ellissimo. By all means not perfect but it was easier then I had thought.

Ha, ha. He better like the size since he had told me how big he wanted it. He says he hates having his feet stick out.
