Shew - that should take you through one cup of coffee this morning right?
Now on to breakfast!!
We were invited to a car show to surprise these three Combat Veterans
It was quite fun, I started talking about QOV and then said I had 3 QOV's for some amazing veterans
When I called their names - their faces totally gave them away !
This Quilt of Valor on the left was made by Kathy and Quitled by Connie
and the one on the right was made by Crystal and quilted by Anita
Both of these were pieced by Glenda and quilted by Lois
And this one was pieced by San and Quilted by Me

So glad you mentioned the block drive again. I had every intention of making some this time but had totally forgotten about it! And, yea! that it goes until 11/8. Surely I can get something done and mailed to you in that amount of time! Seeing some of the quilts you featured makes me want to check out my scraps and get going -- except my r,w,b scraps are getting pretty sparse! Sigh. Eventually I'll send blocks to you for the drive.
ReplyDeletePretty donation blocks, and pretty quilts that were made! Thanks for sharing on Midweek Makers
ReplyDeleteThanks, Alycia!!! Happy to make blocks for QOV !
ReplyDeleteHi, Alycia! I've just been making some of the September Quilts of Valor blocks and I wanted to know where to send them to. If you could tell me an address, I'll send them right off!
