Default Can I get it done in time? And which fabric for the border?
My youngest son is coming to visit in mid June. I finished the 2 older brothers' military quilts before they got out. This kid has been out since December and he still doesn't have his quilt. I'm leaning to the camo for the border, what do you think?
Stupid job keeps interfering with my recreational sewing time!
I'm adding in the other boys' quilts just because I like seeing them all together!

That is a awesome looking quilt, and yes on the camo border. Thank your for your family's military service. I'm sure you are proud of them.

Definitely the camo. The beige is my second favorite as you could do nice FMQ on it. The green is too intense imo. ...and YES you can do it!
