Nathan and his quilt!

Good things come to those who wait!  I finally received pictures of my nephew, Nathan, when he received his Quilt of Valor.  

Nathan was given a quilt to use while he was in the hospital in Germany but had to give it back when he was transferred to the states.  Thanks to Pam R. (who made his quilt) and Deloris B. (who went with her husband to Springfield in the pouring rain to get the quilt) Nathan has his own.  He won't have to give this one back.  

"Thank You" to Pam R. and Deloris B. for making this happen.  Nathan loves his quilt.

Show and Tell

Vicki, Rosemary, Connie, JoAnn,  sisters Katy (age 10) and Kloe (age 7) brought their projects in for "Show and Tell" last Saturday.  

Vicki brought in several of her projects.  She used part of a Kansas Troubles charm pack to make this gorgeous table runner.  She also used Kansas Troubles fabric for the backing and binding.  After getting it quilted, she brought it in so we could see the finished product (my birthday is in May).  




Vicki made this quilt for her Dad.  We know he'll love it.  


"Dressed to the Nines" top Vicki made using four "Wish You Were Here" charm packs.  This pattern is in the Fall "Quilting Quickly" magazine.  I love the fall themed prints.
