Default Charity Quilts sale to benefit our Veterans

Our Guild holds a biennial show on the odd years and this past February in the show, we had a charity quilt sale to benefit our Veterans..... The quilt, hangings, table toppers, etc......had to be red, white & blue to honor our Vets. It was a huge success.
Here is my donation....it is all paper pieced and I loved doing it. We had 51 quilts donated and we sold all but a very few and these few were also donated to the Veterans for their use.

Glad you sold most of the quilts, such a great idea to honor our vets. Like the eagle.

Beautiful. What a wonderful thing for your group to do. This country doesn't do nearly enough for our troops.
