    Beautiful! What did your dad think? The blue tarp brought back memories of our Florida hurricanes!

    Was the pattern hard to find, I have several members of my family who have been in/or are in the army. I bet it almost made your dad cry. What an awesome way to show your pride. Beautiful and special quilt.
