Some of you may remember on Chat last month when I was telling the story of how I had to quickly make up a quilt for my son's girlfriend after I insulted her on Christmas Eve (no, I really wasn't drunk, but close enough to it that I really didn't care what I was saying when I told her to take the stick out of her butt and loosen up a little :oops: )

Her birthday is the 4th of July and this is what she wanted.

Soooooooooooo, anyhoo, here is the quilt top. I'm going to be spraying it tomorrow to sandwich it (hope that works) an getting it quilted over the next week or so.

sorry for the messy room - son's not mine

Sharon, thanks for the compliments.

The pattern is called Fireworks Fancy and is out of the book Amazingly Simple Star Quilts by Jeanne Stauffer & Sandra L. Hatch.
