Finished the Raiders quilt for Megan.
I really like the quilting over the name - looks kind of like a soccer net. But, when I washed it I found that the quilting did not hold down the letters well enough - so, on th plan B! I figured the Shockers quilt would be the same when it came out of the dryer. It wasn't as bad, I think there was more shrinkage behind the letters on the Raiders quilt. But plan B was to go back and sew down the letters even though the quilt was finished. Wouldn't win any quilt show ribbons but the 6 year olds will love the quilts - especially if it ever gets COLD! Since Matthew's Lightning quilt hadn't been quilted yet - that is tomorrow's task - I sewed his letters down! Nice to be able to do one in the correct order.
