Land of the Free
Quilt of Valor
57 x 72 inches |
While organizing scraps in December, I found some orphan quilt blocks. Luckily, I had just enough of the rail fence blocks left over from
Stars of Stripes and
Firecrackers to frame the center panel of
Land of the Free.
Land of the Free is Quilt of Valor #86
I love the fence post around the center:)
ReplyDeleteThat one is a beauty.
ReplyDeleteYay for using up the leftovers! They compliment the panel perfectly!
ReplyDeleteVery pretty and how lucky there were enough of the rail fence blocks. My luck - would have been 1 short. :-)
ReplyDeleteWish I 'd have known while my father in law was alive. We just went through many of his newpaper clippings and Navy memoriabilia. He'd have loved a quilt in his honor!
ReplyDeleteLooks great...VERY patriotic.
ReplyDeleteI am currently quilting a top that has the rail fence/piano key border. I also butted the corners. Now I am at a loss as to how to quilt the corners. Sigh. I guess I'll come up with something.
ReplyDeleteAnother lovely quilt Nancy! You're fantastic :)
ReplyDeleteReally nice, Nancy. Very patriotic.
ReplyDeleteLove it! You sure have made some treasures, Nancy. And oh, about yarn bombing, I agree that the yarn could be used for a better purpose as you said, but I think that they (the YB folk) are trying to say that knitting is also an art form. The trees in Magnolia all had small signs attached that said things like, "Show Kindness," Share Warmtn, etc.
ReplyDeleteOh I really like this one!! :)
ReplyDeleteYou are finishing up quilts like crazy!!!
ReplyDeleteI guess that is helped by the cold, winter weather. Sure is good to stay inside and stitch.
