My husband's uncle is a Vietnam vet but when I asked him if he had a QOV, his response was that he didn't want a formal QOV but if I wanted to make him a nice traditional star quilt he would like that! When he saw the Lisa Sutherland Churn Dash Those Stars quilt, he was smitten.
So I am going to make hime one. Here is my fabric pull and the fabrics.
I din't realize that the red, dark blue and white are all the same design. I must really like it alot! LOL Next up was to make the hst's and middle star.
I placed the center medallion on the design wall.
I was worried about the blocks falling off the wall, so I started to sew the rows together. One row lead to another and before long, I had the center medallion together.
The finished but not quilted quilt.
