American Hero

American Hero
Quilt of Valor
60 x 74
Last week, I gathered patriotic panels (six total) from my stash and pulled fabric for borders. The first top finished was American Hero. The outer border was made from a "cheater" print fabric. Panels make quick and easy quilts.

Cut border sizes: dark blue 2 inches, cream 3.5 inches, red marble 5.5 inches, final border 8.5 inches on sides and 6.5 on top and bottom (I ran short of fabric)

American Hero is QOV #102

    Very nice! Simple squares don't detract from the panel. I have one patriotic panel in my stash so I'm watching your ideas.

    Hi Nancy. Just popping in to say HI from Louisiana! I haven't looked at blogs in SOOOOOOO long, and you have done some much.... over 100 QOV. Yah!! Think of you often. Life is too busy for me to even think about blogging since becoming a minister, plus machine quilting and all the normal stuff that must be done. Glad to see you are doing well and still blogging often.

    This one reminds me of WWII recruiting posters. Very pretty, Nancy.
