Two More Veteran Quilts

Annie (member from Vashon Island, Washington) sent us two more quilts for veterans. I took them to Friday/Saturday sewing to share and I also got labels sewn onto both of them.

1st quilt is a Kaleidoscope pattern using a beautiful assortment of repro fabrics.

Fleece on back - beautiful quilting!
 
Annie's other quilt is a star pattern she drafted after seeing an antique quilt.
 
Here's a close-up of the block.
The block is composed of basic elements including 4-patches.
Betsy liked the quilt so much she sketched the block and I won't be surprised if we see
her using this design in one of her quilts.
 
Flannel on the back of this quilt and more pretty quilting.
 
Annie's quilting is done by Terri Watson in Michigan.
Check out Terri's blog to see the quilts she's working on:  Threadtales.wordpress.com
 
A big THANK YOU to Annie and Terri
for continuing to support our Veteran's Quilt Project.

Vicki posted pictures to our CSQ Facebook page on Friday and Saturday while we were sewing - be sure to look at them to see what everyone was working on.
LOTS OF FUN STUFF!

Last but not least: SOUP!

 
Thanks to Nancy, we made soup and baked bread while we were sewing.
Miriam and Vicki brought yummy chocolates! 
 
Sewing together is really a good time.
