Welcome back, and thanks. Your PSQ is very pretty. I'm saving squares to make one. There are swaps every once in a while, where members trade squares. Mariposa had a swap that just closed for 1.5" squares. SheriR is doing a swap for squares a little bigger. I think 2.5". You might want to check into them if you want more of a variety.
Have fun

You have done what I could never do... and that applies to handquilting a postage stamp quilt AND going into a war zone. Bless you, thank you.

Thank you for your service. As the daughter of a career army dad I know that this meant the world to your daughter. What a lot of handwork. Well done

My thoughts also. Bless you. Your daughter will think of you when she snuggles in the quilt.
