Last Call : Brant's Beer Quilt, June 2009

I had to make this wall hanging very quickly. The beer bottle fabric that I ordered came just a few days before Brant's last day at SirsiDynix. Other fabrics include wood shavings (back fabric, included since Brant is also a wood worker), a olive green marble (looks almost gray in the photo), a gold and green wheat print, a gold marble, and a rust solid.

Since he has been a colleague at for 17 years (and my manager for several years) I really wanted just the right look for this wall hanging. Brant is part of a home brewing group here in Huntsville called the Rocket City Brewers, even winning several awards for his home brew. The design "Black Cherries" by Rhoda Nelson is from issue #1 of Fabric Trends magazine (Summer 2003); the actual block is called Duck and Ducklings.
