I really, really like it! The colors seem to dance across the whole top!
I love the border with the center — excellent choice! It looks surprising patriotic, even with the other non-red white & blue fabrics in it. Very nice!
Wow, you've gotta be pleased with that, wonderful quilt, you did good with the borders.
This turned out great! I really like the stars!
