Uncle's Lap Quilt

I made this quilt with a much loved Uncle in mind applauding

on wool squares and oblongs, objects that I knew were part of

his life. Gardening, Fishing, wild animals. An ideal lap quilt for

snuggling under.

Alternatively the same principal can be applied for a

favoriteAunt,Mum or Grandma, cotton can be used instead

of wool..  I have kits for sale.

This is such a lovely quilt and such fun to make.  Sorry for the picture
