The star fabric was some stuff I bought years ago at Hancock fabric on clearance - think I was going to make PJ bottoms for my daughter - you can see how far I got on that. I guess I was building a stash before I even knew what a stash was-lol. I'm not trying to get a reversible quilt - just wanted something on the back that wasn't boring:-)

Great! You did such a precise job on both the top and bottom, I didn't want you to be disappointed.
The quilt is really stunning!

I love your Double Irish Chain - I am always looking for new ways to use patriotic fabrics and you really hit a home run on this one. I love it - I can see why your DH said this one is a keeper. Although I am sure the charity would have loved it. I make patriotic quilts for our local fire dept - I may be borrowing your idea for this year.
