Quilts of Valor 2014 August

Good Wednesday Morning!!  I can not believe that it is already August! My boys are getting ready to go back to school!! Scary!

Let me show you these Beauties!! For those of you that are new - there are all Quilts of Valor that are ready to go to there forever homes, and show our love to our Veterans. There are just awesome, giving quilters out  there, and these are their creations.

I try really hard to make sure to give the right credit, but I have been known to make a few mistakes.   It's okay to let me know... I will only cry for a minute or two ;)

Here we go!!

Love seeing the wonderful quilts people have made. It provides inspiration to me to continue making patriotic quilts for our local VA hospital. Our group provides about 50 quilts annually and they are well received. Thank you so much for all you do.

I love the pattern of the last two - I recognize it from Love of Quilting as it is a pattern I have in my queue! Good Job - Judy!
