Step Up
Step Up 60 x 66 inches Quilt of Valor #241 |
The blocks for Step Up were made by Sherry G. in NY. She is a generous quilter who makes nearly 400 blocks a month for various veterans' projects. I was fortunate to connect with Sherry, and she sent 84 blocks to make two Quilts of Valor. Thanks to Sherry all I had to do was square the blocks and sew them into a top.
Sherry surprised me with another package of blocks (90 in this shipment) last week. I need to find more time to sew to turn Sherry's blocks into more Quilts of Valor.
Thank you, Sherry for your generosity!
Update: October 2023 - Step Up was lost by the USPS
July 2024 - Step Up was returned by Nerstrand United Methodist Church (MN) after it
was donated to their group
Very handsome quilt. When I first looked at it, it looked deceptively simple. I think sewing it would be more complicated than I originally though. It was really generous of Sherry to send so many blocks. As a wife, daughter, sister of veterans, I thank you very much!
