Black Lacquer Luster - Our son and daughter-in-law asked me to make this quilt for them to give her brother Mike for Christmas. What fun! Our son selected and purchased the fabrics and Mike loves it! One request was that I use high loft batting. Sadly my machine doesn't quilt that very well so I hand quilting it on my big frame. Not so bad as I listened to 8 or 9 books on tape during the process:)
