I have to start by giving credit for the material to my mom. She started this quilt for my Dad at least two years ago. She didn't get it finished and gave it to me as something fun to work on. My Dad will be deployed to Iraq the end of December and it is for him. So I worked my butt of and got it done. I am very proud of it. Most of the points line up. It was a great pattern made up of half square triangles. It went together quite quickly too.

I love your quilt-stars are my favorite and the colors are very pretty.
Thank your dad for his service and his sacrifices. Will pray he stays safe and is home very soon.
