In the center of stars is a large black button from an official Marine Corp uniform. Dad only got to enjoy it for a short while. He passed away from cancer in June 2009. |

MOMIMI I have been thinking of doing some QOV after I finish my lastest project. Also wish to say thanks for your work and efforts with Honor Flight! They DESERVE the recognition! |

Hello Ladyt, I just saw the beautiful S.F. Quilt you made and I am making one for my husband. I bought a 10 inch marine corp patch (emblem) which is embroided and looks similar to the one you used. It has a shiny substance on the back and is fairly thick. I am wondering if I should wash it first, or just sew it onto some material. It is pretty stiff, did you have a similar center piece for your quilt? I hope you see this. Thanks for sharing this beautiful quilt.

Great quilt!! Thank you for sharing....

So happy to hear he got to see it. It is beautiful!

Thank you.
The center piece I used was actually a pillow panel I found on ebay. (REALLY reasonably priced!) Not sure what the shiny substance might be unless it already has some type of fusible on it. I would probably just sew it onto the fabric I was going to use. I be afraid to wash it; my luck it would come out all wonky.
