Quilt of Valor Show Sponsored by CRAFTSY!!!!

Happy Wednesday you all!!! Glad you could stop by!!

This Weeks Quilt of Valor Show is sponsored by http://www.craftsy.com/  I love this site... I do! They have such great classes, and you can take them any time and as many times as you want.... even at 3:30 in the morning when you are up.... just because!!

It has been a little like Christmas around here... we are having such fun opening the blocks. I just picked up a slew of packages.... and didn't quite get them opened... but here is what I have from this last week:

LeighAnn T in VA (20)
Laura R in CA (50)
Paulette H in WI (25)
Melissa in IA (2)
Maliah H in KY (5)
Glodean in KY (8)
Diane B in TX (10)
Rita in MO (5)
Sharon E in CO (15)

And now a word from our Sponsor:

"When Alycia reached out to Craftsy about sponsoring her BigBlowout Block Drive, we knew we had to help! Quilts of Valor is a great organization, and Alycia is doing amazing things in Craftsy’s own backyard. We are happy to donate three Craftsy classes to giveaway to YOU - keep those blocks coming!


If you’re not familiar with Craftsy, we are an online community of crafters, offering on-demand video classes, an indie pattern store, a fabric shop, and more. With over 2 million members from around the world watching over 170,000 hours of streaming classes each month, our online learning experience is like no other. When you enroll in one of our video classes, you have unlimited, on-demand access to your world-class instructor. If you get stuck, simply type in your question - your instructor will get back to you within a couple days, and you can continue working on your project. Taking a class on Craftsy is like having a classroom in your own house!"

Check out the LATEST Quilting Classes on Craftsy Today!  and while you are there - be sure to thank them!!! 

You might also remember that Craftsy helped us promote QOV a little bit earlier in the year with a mystery quilt and then a machine quilting class -   let me show you a Quilt of Valor that was made by Ellen and presented to her son .




Isn't this quilt fabulous? The Soldier isn't so bad either right? He was tickled, and as so many of our veterans are - totally surprised that someone is thinking of them!!!  
Please be sure to check out our other sponsors and thank them all for their support.

Wow! Even more incentive to make blocks for this blow out. I've got 4 done and moe in process. I love the Craftsy classes -- especially like that I can go back and review them. And they wait for me until I have time and interest! Thanks Craftsy for helping with Alycia's QOV drive.
