All are wonderful; however, I truly like the crumb-pieced one. Very nice layout and color combo.
What beautiful quilts and use of the fabrics. Kudos to both Sue and Alycia. Great inspirationi to help clear some of my stash too.

I love your commitment to the Quilts of Valor. I finished a T-shirt quilt for the guardian of a fallen soldier. We live in a small East TN town and this young man is our hometown hero. He was 21 yr. old CPL. Frankie Watson. This quilt has a special meaning to Lowell Russell who raised him from age 12. Besides burying his son he also was involved in a serious accident. He was a TN State Trooper and his patrol car was hit from behind sending him into a concrete median. Lowell's car burst into flames. It so happen an EMT ambulance and 2 police cars were in area and they got Lowell out of the car. He is still in rehab and will not be able to return to his job he loved so much. So my quilt "A Tribute to a Hometown Hero" is now with Lowell. For complete story and pic of quilt check out my blog. http://www.backporchextras.blogspot.com/

Excellent use of fabric scraps!
Thanks everyone. I'm glad you like the quilts. There are actually 2 different crumb quilts here. The border fabrics are a little different on each one. I have just completed my 13th QOV for this year - all that is left to do is finish the binding, make some labels and then 4 more quilts will be on their way to Alycia! I love making these quilts.
What wonderful Quilts of Valor and a great use of scraps. Well done!!
What an inspiration. I just started with the group and picked up my first quilted quilt yesterday. I did the binding last night and will take to my guild Sat.I used part of a set of blocks that I won in a BOM drawing a few years ago. Have 8 more blocks to use. Hope to get more people interested. I sew in S. California.
Wonderful quilts from a creative, caring soul :) Thanks for sharing the love...
