PS: not sewn yet, just laid out.
It is a lovely little quilt obviously made with care and love. some little guy will like it!

Your lay out solution looks great! I like it a lot! Congratulations on making such a thoughtful gift for a boy who will love and treasure it.

I really like your idea of the green and brown with the red.....A young or older young man would like this combination.....

I prefer the red also - it makes the blocks pop.

I like the Red! Blue doesn't do the stars justice.<object type="cosymantecnisbfw" cotype="cs" id="SILOBFWOBJECTID" style="width: 0px; height: 0px; display: block;"></object>

do you have enough fabric to just put sashings of red around half the blks and blue around the other half? I think that would look great!!
