Ben's Quilt of Valor

Finally!  It missed his birthday by 6 months but I finally finished the quilt for Andrea's boyfriend Ben, a Marine.  What better time to give someone a flannel quilt than during the hottest summer on record?



Here's a close-up of the Marine Corps fabric.  I didn't want to sub-cut it so I used it as a panel.  Then I just added inner borders and stars to fit. -- Carol B.



Happy 4th!




Sara sent this a while ago, but since I'd been so slow to post it, I thought it appropriate for the holiday! 

Enjoy the 4th and stay cool!
