Scrappy patriotic quilt back
 

In between addressing Christmas cards and doing baking, I put together this scrappy patriotic quilt back to help our guild finish the quilt top we made for a local community member who will receive it as a surprise thank you for all he has done. Looks kind of funky but to me, it is better than a plain back. Plus I was using up much of the scrap pieces we had left over. This will be the 3rd one our guild, along with community volunteer ladies, has made. Will also include pic of the top. It is the one on the bed. The backing is being held up by my DH with an exam by our friendly quilt inspector.

Good job!!!

Nicely done!!

Very Nice Job! Keep up the good work!

I like both sides the same:) Love the complete quilt!

very nice!!

Very nice! :thumbup: I see your quilt inspector peeking around the bottom corner. :)

Great quilt and great backing. I like the backings to be useful as a top, too!

In fact, when I make a "kid" quilt, I always try to make the backing look like a simple quilt top but with a more grown up look. That way the quilt 'grows up' with them!

Very nice!

Great job. Love the back.

Both sides are very pretty, he will be so glad to get it. Great job by all.

Your backing is great. I can tell you put a lot of work and planning into it. Anyone would we thrilled with such a quilt backing.!!!!!

Great Job :)

Really nice quilt

Very nice!

love the quilt and colors and the quilt inspector

That is a COOL backing!! Love it!

Nice work. We have to do something for the backs with the fabric so expensive.

Great job
Have a Blessed night

nice backing

The back of the quilt looks like as much work was involved as the front of the quilt. Nice job.

Gorgeous quilt.

That pieced back could nearly be mistaken as a "front"!

I love it! :D

Yes, it is scrappy, but it turned out great!

I like both the front and the back. I have a stash of patriotic fabric, and am trying to decide what kind of quilt I want to make. I am a member of our local American Legion Auxiliary, so patriotic is second nature. We try to help vets all we can.
