    Default Quilt bound for Hawaii!

    This is for my dad, who retired from the Air Force. My brother was in the Marines, my husband was in the Army for a few years until he smartened up and joined the Coast Guard, and he and I both retired from the Coast Guard. I found fabric for each service, so we're all represented.

    The pattern is 6-Pack, and my long-armer chose the quilting design - she's fabulous.

    And feel free to pat me on the back for not only having it done before Christmas but before December! Woot!

    Thank you, too, to everyone who helped me with my batting in Hawaii question!

    Great quilt and a great tribute to all of you in your family who have served our nation in the armed forces. The stars in the quilting are fabulous. Thank you for your service.

    Agree the longarmer knocked it out of the park. Thanks to you and your military family for your sacrifice. Especially the extended family as those people serve as well. This is a wonderful tribute.
