I made THIS:
From THESE:
These were Jeanne's clothes from the 70's, made from wool plaids and velour. She wanted a queen sized quilt. I added cream colored flannel for the front, and red flannel for the back. There is a 17" border top and bottom to get the desired size, so I added quite a bit of quilting. I used a 3" template for the large circles, and then filled in with swirls and smaller circles. The quilt is really heavy and warm with all the wool and flannel. It's 92 x 108.
