This is the quilt I am sending to tealflacon, of this board, to send to her DH's (my DS) office in Djibouti, Africa. He is in the Air Force. These quilts will give the men in his office a little bit of home while they are away.

I love your label. Where did you get the US map? I've never seen anything close to that?

The map was a print on a piece of fabric from my stash (too small to use in the quilt) and I just applique around it, then I just added the writing with the machine.
