Thanks for the show! Clue 2 done and love your directions! I am trying to collect more red and blue fabric so I can make more of veteran quilts as I mostly make comfort quilts for cancer patients. I am inspired by your continual shows, so I am going to make more!
You are an inspiration to other quilters when it comes to making QOVs! Whenever I make a QOV, I feel so much joy knowing how a QOV can mean a great deal to a veteran. There is something about being enveloped in the comfort of a quilt!
Wonderful examples of Patriotic Quilt and inspiration for us all. Thanks!!
Quilts are beautiful as usual! OH MY GOODNESS!! LOVED the story they did on QOV!! You are fabulous!! What an awesome surprise :D You are a natural in front of the camera ;)
Alycia,
Love the quilts! Thanks for the QOV show this week.
Thanks to you and Cecily for working so diligently for our veterans. There are no words that can convey how grateful I am that you are such a positive face for those of us who sit home and quietly quilt for our heroes. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

PS: as soon as Thanksgiving is over I will get to your mystery QAL- We've had guests for two weeks straight celebrating my mother in Laws 90th birthday.
Congratulations on your Everyday Hero award! You deserve it!

Lots of quilty goodness today! Thanks for sharing.
Thank you for sharing the Everyday Hero story as well as the regular Wed show. I'm in Baltimore this week and needed my QOV Fix! And, yes, thanks for running the QAL for Quilts 4 Military - I'm collecting the clues, to make it when I get home :)
You are just angels. Thank you for all your hard work!!! You are very inspiring and bring tears to my eyes when I think about all the veterans that receive these beautiful quilts. Keep up the good work and I will too!
Working on mystery quilt right now :).
Happy Holidays,
Lynn in CA
Pur QOV group just presented over. 50 quilts. Last Saturday. It is indeed an honor to make and present a Q OV. I did. 5 quilts that have been presented and have 4 mpre tops finished.
what a nice thing they did for you. both acknowledging you both, and having the program described. i especially enjoyed hearing from the vets from viet nam. they were treated so badly. i lost alot of friends in that war. continue on caring for these vets. we do it here in florida. patti in florida
What a lovely surprise for you two!!! You deserve it for all that you do for our veterans!
Beautiful quilts. My favorite is that first one, well maybe its that 4th one? Wait no it's the 10th one? No picking favorites I guess.
