#7 - Thank you, Larry!

It began simply....

then after much prayerful thought, I decided to expand ~ what I call ~ the star burst.

Now to quilt!

I've made the label...

Binding is done, it's washed, and ready to award!

On Saturday, June 21, 2014, the presentation...

Thank you for your service, Larry!

#6 - Last Man Standing

I joined the Quilts of Valor Foundation last year, one year too late to make one for my daddy, a WWII and Korean Conflict Veteran. Richard, however, is the last man standing among the group - lifelong high school buddies with Daddy. This one's for Richard, a WWII hero, in honor of my daddy.

Designed, created, and quilted by Lanetta's Creations.

Thank you, Richard, for your service!

#5 Quilting Treasures, 2014 QOV Challenge

This one is a little different... I have no idea ~ and will never know ~ who will be the recipient of this Quilt of Valor! All I do know, the award will go to a deserving soul.

When I saw the announcement by HMQS "Home Machine Quilting Show for 2014" ~ I knew I wanted to participate! It wasn't for a prize, but for the end result - a QOV award. And, honestly, because the way fabric and batting costs have skyrocketed, I thought for $20 (the entry fee for the kit), it would give me a good head start on another QOV!

This is what I came up with ...

"A Song of Thanks"

Pieced by Lanetta's Creations in Texas
Quilted by Michelle in Texas

Thank you for your service, whomever you are!
