Kathy’s Sports Quilt

How fun is this quilt?!?!?!!! Kathy made this for her grandson’s 9th birthday. Lucky him!

She said she could some of the block patterns on Etsy, and the others she came up with. It amazes me because most of the blocks and pieces are pieced, like that football helmet. Kathy is so creative!

I used cream Omni thread from Superior Threads, which blends beautifully on all the darker fabrics. If you use ASTLEISHA at checkout you can receive 15% off. Go to: https://www.superiorthreads.com/omni-3004-cream/p/134-02-3004

Kathy requested Hobbs wool for the batting, which added some fun puffiness to the quilt.

We talked about a few different designs, and decided on my Squared Rounded panto, which turned out perfectly for it. Squared Rounded is available in my shop, go to: https://www.quiltingit.com/shop/p/squared-rounded

Here are some closer looks at the blocks.

That soccer ball amazing!

Here is a closer look at the helmet.

I love that she added a trophy!

Even a jersey with his number on it!!
