My father-in-law, Roger, is a huge Elvis fan. When I found this quilt panel a few years ago I knew that I would have to make a quilt for Roger!

Roger loves taking afternoon naps on the couch, so a lap blanket would be perfect for him.
I added a thin white and a thick grey border around the main panel to make the quilt into a lap blanket size.
For the quilting I did some stippling around the edge. I added some free motion musical notes at each corner.
(sorry the pictures are so terrible)
In each of the Elvis blocks I free motioned around Elvis (not easy!) and then I did stitched each set of jail bars.
I was a hit!
