Love the colors in this bandanna quilt. I have made several of these before, the first one was 25+ years ago and we carried it everywhere, to the state fair, to picnics, fireworks.
This is a gift for someone special.
Milo has to get in on all the action too! I spread the quilt out nicely and here he came.
The bright blue and the chocolate brown look great together.
I backed it with a bright blue gingham (from Goodwill $1) and a row of left over bandanas.
Aunt Marge quilted it for me and did a great job…
I bound it with a chocolate polka dot fabric which looks so cute!
Love the quilting design too!!
I might be linking up to some of these great parties!

I love this...you did such a great job. Years ago, I started the tradition of making a jean quilt for my grandchildren and backing it with bandannas, but without actually quilting the bandannas. This is lovely.
Very pretty and a great idea! :)
That is beautiful and what a great idea! Just stopping by from the Say it Saturday Linky Party. Thanks for sharing!
