Dallas Cowboys Lap Sized Quilt


This quilt was a blast to make!  Together Pat and I created this lap quilt for a customer.  Pat did an amazing job piecing it all together.  She paper pieced the stars and appliqued the letters.  How awesome is she?!  Go Pat!!!  I planned on doing an all over simple quilting design on this one, but after looking at it and all of the hard work Pat put into it, I just knew I had to do a custom job on it.

You can see in the pictures below how I did the quilting.  I did a simple zigzag on the borders and added some lines to fill in the empty spaces.



Below you can see how the corners came together with the zigzag design.


I also did some zigzag quilting around the appliqued letters.  






I did some simple all over stars and loops for the white area in the quilt.



And finally a quick pic of the back of the quilt.  I just love the way this one turned out.  The customer was happy with it and that's really all that matters!
