I feel for you, as I have the same type of father. What I particularly like about your quilt is the use of the flag fabric as a border - and you can't get any more patriotic than that! Keep quilting, keep showing us your lovely quilts and give your father a jar of salted nuts next time.

I think it is stunning and certainly very patriotic. I don't give many quilts as gifts because I find most non-quilters have no idea how much of ourserlves goes into the making of one. I'm so sorry you were hurt. I am very proud of your accomplishment. :-)

I think it's beautiful and I think you should take it back and hang it in your home. It's your first. Kind of like first born child!

It's a beautiful quilt, very patriotic. I'm sorry he hurt your feelings, here's hoping he will rethink his words.

Sorry for your pain. Is he usually like this? If thats his manor you need to just say oh well, and go on. I think its very patriotic and would hang it in my house!
