Catherine did a great job making footballs in the gray open spaces. And then she put stars in the red spaces. Good idea, Catherine!
I had the binding ready, made from the same flannel as the backing, lots of helmets and footballs there.
Today I trimmed the quilt, applied the binding and then gave it a good wash and dry.
I hope Devon likes his name spelled out on the quilt as much as I do.
Final size: 44" x 75", bigger than Margaret's Hope Chest required, but he's turning 12, so a growing boy..

Gratitudes:
Bee members took 7 boxes to fill for IBOL
Devon's quilt ready to be mailed
Lots of snow has melted, wind howling
Great finish! That's one lucky boy.
