The 'Texas Star of Fame' was made for my boss who turned 50 last year. He is a great guy and I have worked with him for almost 10 years. He keeps me laughing and we are good friends. He has so many friends throughout the country and I thought a signature quilt would be great. The only problem I had was determining who to contact for signatures since he has so many friends! When he received the quilt is probably the only time I've ever seen him speechless. He was very surprised.
