What was your inspiration?
Before I knew what type of project I was going to make , I chose the fabrics for my dad, who is a Vietnam Veteran. He needed a new quilt to take with him in his truck - he is a truck driver. It was the first time I made a log cabin quilt and I enjoyed it so much that it turned into a king size quilt before i knew it!
What are you most proud of?
The end product: I was extremely pleased at how well it ended. The reds and blues were just the perfect compliment to each other.
What advice would you give someone starting this project?
Press every seam as you go.
