A quilter named Ray is making quilts for the Veterans in his church!! Annie heard about this from JO, of Jo's Country Junction. This following is from Ray himself.
"The church I am a member of, Saint Hilary's Episcopal Church, is holding a Veteran's Day dinner on Nov 10 to recognize and appreciate veterans. Last year we gave 13 red, white and blue quilts to veterans in the congregation. We have more to recognize and want to include visitors, guests and veteran family members with quilts. So many have gone for so long without any recognition or acknowledgement. Just trying to change that in some way."
Mine is above. We had several different pattern options to choose from. Annie designed the quilts, and I picked one design that she sent, and we were off to the races!!! These were the centers of the blocks, that I was making a couple of weeks ago.
This one is Annie's!!!! I love her border the best. We had so much fun making these together and cannot wait to work on our next ones!! Isn't that so cool how different they look, using the same block????
Enjoy your sewing!!
