Hubby requested the same pattern I did for my Uncle Mel's quilt.
This was made with the super hard to find fabric that I was looking for back here. I gave in and bought 1/2 yard of it.
It measure about 65x75
Fabrics are from Andover's Lights, Camera, Action and Robert Kaufman's Pleasures and Pastimes.
Stippled in White. I don't really like it on the sashing, but I didn't want to use black and have it detract from the lighter prints and the back.
Backing is leftovers from the quilt top except the film reels. I had bought them for the borders on the front but it was way too big of a print.
To say he loved it is an under-statement:-) He watches tv with it every night and sleeps with it every night too.
He was speechless when he opened it. Can't ask for a better reaction than that!
He is a HUGE movie buff and a screenwriter, so this is the perfect fit for him.

Oh, Lisa -- it's just wonderful!! You did a great job, and it sounds like the perfect fit for your Hubby! He's one lucky guy!! Way to Sew!!
I'm so glad you got the pricey fabric, it was worth it! It's such a great quilt. Love the popcorn fabric in there, that is so fun!
You nailed this one. And it was a surprise? Incredible. I'm so happy he loves it, Lisa. But- you knew he would!
