    I really think this is fine for a marine. He would look pretty funny with a pastel calico quilt on his bunk! I would definitely finish this as you originally planned. He will love it.

    Perfection is highly overrated. Don't beat yourself up over it. Your DS will LOVE it and that is the important part.

    As for the colors, it's hard to judge when it's just in pieces. A few blocks against a white design wall will show a much distorted picture. I think it's wonderful.

    I like the colors and when it is done will look lighter than you think. Don't over think it. It will be fine.

    I like the color changes you made in the L, sure made the star tips more pronounced - great job! Looking forward to seeing the whole quilt. Please thank your son for his service, I am so proud of them all.

    I love the replacement colors. Is this something he is to take back with him? They do have limited room when they return and regretfully things do disappear. If he leaves it at home, laundry won't be much of an issue later on.

    As the mom of a soldier who has been deployed 3 times, I know this to be true.

    It looks wonderful and since it is made with love, that is the only way it will ever be perfect...regardless of colors or skills.

    Give him a huge hug and let him know we all do appreciate him and his honor.
