It was a lot of fun doing this quilt. The quilt tops are a piece of cake when you keep everything pressed and precise. The machine quilting is another story. I saw a great tutorial about rolling your quilt top on a trim board as well as the backing and batting on another. I tried it with a small one I am working on but with PVC pipe. It worked out great as you pin or baste your quilt sandwich. I waited my whole working life of 45 years for this moment in time.

That is the question about the next one. I am making another quilt for the back of this one so that it is reversable. Can't see using all that yardage and having it all blank.

What is really funny is that I am teaching my husband's ex-wife the same pattern. I was so very excited about how easy it went together that she is going to try it in all patriotic fabrics since she is born 7-3. I am a neatnick also. I studied a lot of great teachers for a long time and Craftsy has some of the best. I learn something from each of them.
