Dad's Christmas Quilt

My dad has been a part of the Middlebury Fire Dept for over 25 years and for that I'm very proud of him. In fact, I'm also proud of his father as well seeing that he and his brother-in-law started the deptartment. In honor of my father, for Christmas I decided to make him a fireman's quilt. The pattern is called "Irish Eyes" although I'm not really sure why, but oh well...it's pretty none the less. I used a black piece of fabric with a fireman design mixed with two different shades of red to give a nice contrast. He was very impresed with it and uses it to sleep with every night now.
