I made this for my sister last Christmas. Her son had just graduated from Basic Training:

I wish I had made something like this when my son was in. Looks good Cindy. I bet it meant a lot to both of them.

It's a little different than the "official" blue star - but I made the white 12" x 18" and the outside red is about 3".... the star is one that I got from Keepsake in a package - I plan on using the rest of the stars for Robert's quilt... only it's still in my head!

These are fairly quick to make and mean so much to a military family!

I like your wallhanging! What size is it and what is the fabric you used as the background? Very nice!

Very nice CindyB. Great fun to make and give as gifts aren't they? I know your sister loves it.

Thank you to your nephew for his service to our country.
