I finished this quilt for my nephew a few days ago. It's title is "The Saint Snidely Sidewinder and the Unrepentant Uke Boys."

| Saint Snidely is the patron saint of ukuleles, vegetarians, mustaches, and the A-Team. |

| My nephew plays in a ukulele band, and their logo is the mustache on the lower left in the mustache portion of this photo. |

| Here's the long shot. I favor just enough quilting to keep the batting where it belongs. In the case of the cotton batting I used, that means stitching can be 10 inches apart, which is still a little closer than I like. Even so - this is a picnic blankie and is sure to turn up in the parks and environs of Spartanburg, SC, when Snidely and the gang hit the stage. |

Wow! Love your quilt! Love all the details you put into it. I love quilts, and envy quilters talents. What a lovely piece of art.
That is very unique and creative! I have always seen more traditional quilts. This is something new and unique. Well done!

Thanks, Winnie! I only started quilting four or five years ago, inspired by the fabulous range of novelty fabrics. Love seeing what comes out when I start combining!
Thanks, Kathy! Put "art quilt images" into your search engine and prepare to be astonished. Incredible work is being done, especially with quilts made as wall hangings.
