YOU CAN MAKE A QOV!

Today I’ve been working on a Quilt Of Valor.  I’m using this Lone Starburst for the center and have been making log cabins in red, white and blue to go around this center piece.  This center star is a paper pieced pattern that I originally found on the Six White Horses blog.  It is now available for free on Craftsy.  The pattern for the full quilt came from the Quilts of Valor website.  They have lots of free patterns and instructions about size, where and how to send your quilt, and just about anything else you would want to know about a Quilt of Valor.  Why not do something special this summer and make a quilt for a soldier?

 ANOTHER NOTE
  • Did you go check out the Row By Row Shop Hop website?  This is a must for anyone traveling this summer.  You won’t want to miss it. 
  • Kitchen Table Quilting has a tutorial for a Striped Chevrons Quilt.
Until next time,

Stay Calm! Stay Kind! Stay Positive!

Generosity has no bounds. Above are the women in the Quilts For Kids group at the Attic Window Quilt Shop. Left to right, Henrietta, Phyllis, Nancy, Carol, Karen. These women donate their time, fabric, money once a month to make quilts for kids who have cancer.
