    Default USMC One hot Marine

    I think this variegated red fabric, with gold stars, makes it look flaming hot. Since it’s a Marine panel, I said it must be for one hot Marine-lol I have no idea who he is yet but I just know we won’t be disappointed!

    between the ombre in the red fabric and the twisting of the stars, it gives the quilt some great movement.

    Toogie, you make my day brighter when I see your new quilts. I can imagine how happy the recipients are when they receive them. Your accuracy in sitching is an inspiration to the rest of us, I don't know too many quilters who are willling to share the backside look of a quilt. We love the inspiration and creatitivity of your quilts. Thank you for what you do and for sharing your projects with us. You make me want to do more, better. God bless you and your work.
