I'm not sure how copyright works here....so I want to get this out of the way first. I'm pretty sure that Stairway To Heaven is a public domain pattern as it's been around forever. I used a simple cross hatch, but it only went one direction. I did use Borders Made Easy. It's a cheater paper you put on borders so you can quilt cool lines on it. I loved it and if I can use it, anybody can. It did make my borders easy. I hope that gives all the credit due. Now, for the pics.

Here is the top:

And the backing:

The Top with the back:

Close up of the top corner. You can see the quilt lines and the border paper:

Border Paper so you can see the design:

Border already sewn on the bottom:

All that's left is the delivery pictures, we'll have to wait until he gets here for that!!

Looks great. I have collected Army fabrics for my daughter too. Just havn't made anything with them yet. I also have Navy fabrics and military aircraft for my son and husband that I have not done anything with yet.

Thank you for the service of your family members!!

My daughter just returned on Wednesday from a year's tour in Iraq.
