Quilted Map

So, Chris and I were in the fabric store (one of my favorite places to go -yes, he agreed to go :) ) and he saw some map fabric that he really liked.  He knew I had the same fabric at home and we started talking about what I could do with it.  Then he asked me if I would make it into a wall hanging for his classroom.  How could I resist? I outlined a lot of the states -mostly the square ones because they were easier. I also added some waves in the ocean and outlined some of the mountains.

I bought the fabric probably two years ago with the intention of making a baby blanket, but after I got it home, I changed my mind.  I'm satisfied with the way it turned out and think it will look great hanging in my honey's classroom.
