Default It's a Texas State of Mind

When palandrum posted her Texas Pride quilt, http://www.quiltingboard.com/picture...p-t225463.html, I KNEW I had to make one for our house too! It took some time to find a pattern - they are few and far between.
I pieced the top last Sunday afternoon,
pieced the back yesterday morning with thanks to Tartan, EasyPeezy & Peckish for providing me the resources to figure out partial seams,
Quilted it today.
Pics are without bindings. I put a wavy line about an inch apart in the body, an outline of Texas in the middle, and stars in the border.
When I showed my DH he asked/said to me, "We are keeping that, right?" I think he likes it too!
Thanks for looking!

Beautiful quilt. The flag of Texas is so distinctive. Although I don't live there, I visit yearly and I like TX, too.

Thanks everyone! After making this one, I do have a few other 'flag' ideas to follow up on between some of my more 'intensive' projects.
