Next Destination - Colorado

By -

The two flag quilts are bound, labeled, laundered, and making their way to Colorado, so Alycia can distribute them to the Wounded Warriors at Fort Carson.


This one was quilted by Julie B. (Ogden, UT) 


Julie used some swirls around the large star, a small meander inside the star and a feathery plume on the stripes.


This one was quilted by Nita V. (Ogden, UT). Nita used an all-over star pantograph on the quilt.


Both quilts crinkled beautifully after they were washed and dried. 

I am very thankful for the generosity of Julie and Nita, who volunteered to do the longarm quilting on these two Quilts of Valor.
