Awesome, Please tell your sister "Thank You" for protecting our freedom!

Beautiful......I was planning on doing one for my dh when he deploys in June were the uniforms hard to sew through ?

^^^NO, not really! It's harder to find sections of material that don't have seams, kwim? Some things I found out while I was disassembling:

Some seams are doubled over material, so if you pick apart the threads, there's actually no raw edge there, or you've got an extra half inch of fabric that you wouldn't think you had.

The "rear" of the pants is two thicknesses of fabric.

It's easiest to use scissors to slice up a seam (like the underarm) and work on smaller sections at a time, instead of trying to cut accurately while the rest of the garment is sliding about.

The back of the BDU top is the largest area of unsewn fabric, so use that WISELY!

Forget the "press to the dark" rule. I used the "press to the not BDU side" rule because even my best fabrics are not as thick as BDU.

So glad can recycle! looks like used Barbie car for color inspiration!!

You used some old uniforms in this quilt?! I had to study it a long time to see the camouflage fabric. You have turned a pig's ear into a silk purse. The quilt is beautiful! I know your sis will love, love, love it. I certainly do.

:thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: She will love it!

My son will be deployed in June...this is a great idea! I might have to borrow it for him too.

Wonderful looking quilt for sure

Wow, you can just see the love sewn in!

Oh how nice for your sister.....the quilt is beautiful...I love allthe different types of blocks you incorporated!
