I purchased the background fabric. It is a lot darker than the picture shows. It is nearly navy with a purplish tint to it. I couldn't get the pictures to show the true colors. The rest of the quilt is totally scrappy. I made the Ohio star on the back 300% it is 3 feet across. The back is also stuff from my stash. I did have to buy the outer green border because I screwed up the measurements of the back. I made it a couple of inches too small. My longarmer is going to try to put the states names in my sashing. I told her to just put them in over and over in any order she wants. She couldn't get in to her computer when I was there to make sure she has them all. SHe was in the middle of a quilt. Thanks for the compliments. I love how it came out.
