Progress - Design Wall Monday

My Quilt of Valor top is becoming more of a top now!
I have all the rows sewn and one of the 2 borders on.
I have had to share my quilting set up this last week...

with Little Bit!!

He is working on his Last 4H quilt in his 4H career.. and of course it is a QOV 
( we will show you soon)


You can find the Pattern for this block

Oh!! and see all those bags of Quilts?

Guess why they are there?

I am Speaking at the Pieceable Friends Quilt Guild on Tuesday
Surprisingly -
I am all organized and ready to go!!
I am excited to tell them about my quilts!!


oh!! GO check this artist out
I LOVE her
Literally


She grew up with my Middle child
and she is just amazing
You can get her music on  I tunes and this is her CD

I am so proud of her.
When she was in 5th grade she went with me and the other students to Ft Carson to award Quilts of Valor and she sang the National Anthem aCapella ( I hope I spelled that right?)

I knew then... she was destined for greatness
It was amazing
350 Soldiers Standing  in the chapel
and not a dry eye!

Seriously - give this girl a listen - She is awesome!

Look at all those bags of goodness hidden under that beautiful quilt top! I'm super jealous of all the quilters who'll get to see what's tucked inside. Thanks for linking up to What I Made Monday.

Beautiful QOV. And your young people are inspirational.

Isn't it wonderful when you see the talent in a young person and then see them begin to fulfill it and share with the world. The QOV is looking great. And thanks for the link to instructions. I'm still working on qOV but they are going locally these days. But this would be a wonderful quilt for us to do here. Thanks.

It looks great! All the best for your speaking engagement.

Your quilt looks comforting. I especially like the colors you chose, using the tan with the others. Beautiful!

Love the QOV, looks almost ready for quilting. So 4H doesn't extend to college aged students (sorry very much a city girl here)? Even though it's Little Bit's last 4H quilt, hopefully it's not his last quilt ever.
