Lone Star II

Lone Star II
56 x 67 inches
Quilt of Valor #144
I intended to finish this QOV in May but got sidetracked and finished it on June 1, 2018.

 The red gradient fabric was much different than any I've used before - mottled and almost batik-like. I told my niece the fabric looks like a tomato soup factory exploded. 

Note: As I stated in an earlier post, two vertical rows were added in order to meet the minimal size requirement for a Quilt of Valor.

    I love the way you have used shades of red to great effect to create the red stripes.

    This really turned out beautifully! Not an easy task to make all those HSt's and line it all up-bravo!

    This one is a wonderful quilt. Just gorgeous. The reds really make the quilt shine. I like the mottled tone on tones.
