    Default Patriotic Blocks

    I follow http://lovelaughquilt.blogspot.com/ faithfully, and when Beth asked if anyone would be interested in donating some 12 1/2 unfinished patriotic star blocks to be pieced together for a "Starry" quilt for veterans, I knew I wanted to be a part of it. Here are a couple of blocks I donated to her. They are Hope of Hartford, and Silent Star. I can't wait to see the finished quilt!

    These are both beautiful blocks! And your piecing is perfect. I'm jealous! I love the second one with just the accent of red. It really makes that block twinkle.

    Well, I'll tell you what they are --- fabulous! You're a doll to do this for vets. Please post the finished quilt if you get a picture of it.
