Thank you for your response. I'm not so concerned about the back - it was fabric I was using up - bought way to much blue - a result of not really knowing what I was doing and the graph paper I drew it out on did not give me yardage - go figure!! The star fabric was some stuff I bought years ago at Hancock fabric on clearance - think I was going to make PJ bottoms for my daughter - you can see how far I got on that. I guess I was building a stash before I even knew what a stash was-lol. I'm not trying to get a reversible quilt - just wanted something on the back that wasn't boring:-)
The quilt is really stunning!

I love your Double Irish Chain - I am always looking for new ways to use patriotic fabrics and you really hit a home run on this one. I love it - I can see why your DH said this one is a keeper. Although I am sure the charity would have loved it. I make patriotic quilts for our local fire dept - I may be borrowing your idea for this year.
