    Such a very special quilt and I love the use of the decorative stitches! Your choice of stitches really work to add to the quilt and the one you used for binding is very nice. Well done!

    Beautiful quilt! Great choice of fabrics for the TWA and a wonderful quilt for some veteran. Good job.

    Fantastic quilt. Would love to see the look on the face of the recipient when he/she receives this beauty.

    It ended up around 50x54. The squares were 2x4 finished. I made sets of 4.5 inch strips of 6 fabrics, and made them into tubes. Then cut 2.5 inch strips from the tubes.
