My dad is a professional night time TV napper who lives in a chilly house. Naturally, his 60th birthday was the perfect excuse to make him a quilt.
I used two jelly rolls from the Zen Chic Figures line, which were purchased at my favorite quilt shop, Stitched Studio Grand Rapids. I found a contrasting solid for the block borders. For someone who really enjoys picking out coordinating fabrics, this was a bit anticlimactic for me. Jelly rolls, while great time savers, just aren't my thing.

I have a fat quarter collection of these fabrics and was stumped as to what to do with them. I love what you have chosen and that solid is perfect with them. I might need to pull those out again. Thanks for the inspiration, and I bet your dad's going to love his quilt!
