You sure have been busy. I know they will be appreciated by the soldiers. I think we need to show them more how important they are to us. Blessings to you for all the hard work.

As a Marine grandma, thank you.

Your quilts are beautiful! I am sure they will all be loved by their new owners!

WOW, you have been busy. Those are gorgeous, and for such a great cause. Thanks for sharing.

Beautiful quilts and such a kind heart goes into them! What size are they? I'm just curious.

They are all beautiful. Can't imagine finishing that many quilts so quickly! God Bless you for your kindness and caring, I know all who receive them will be so happy.

Your quilts are just beautiful. The soldiers will love them.

Wow they all are super and I'm sure very much appreciated!

Your quilts are just wonderful!! So kind and thoughtful to send them off to our troops. They will be so glad to receive them.

Oh my goodness you have been busy Love the one with the soldiers and the kaleidoscope one especially They are all lovely. Keep up the good work

Many dittos. They are beautiful. You have done a wonderful thing. Thanks. BrendaK

Do you ever get sleep LOL how wonderful you are doing this for the troops, I come from a military family and even my grandson's served over seas and now their tours of duty has passed and they are concentrating now on families.
Your work is outstanding and I applaud you.

All are very pretty.

I usually make them 54" x 78" because this is what the guys told me fit their beds the best but there are some taller guys over there and so some longer ones are thrown in every now and then but for the width, without dragging the floor to much they told me the 54" was good.

That was an altered block from the Quilt Pro program. It was "Kaleidoscope block 26" but instead of using 2 fabrics for the bright blue & black point, I cut it as one piece. And of course I changed up the background colors to get the effect I was looking for. I really liked the way it turned out. Here's a picture of the original block as it looks in the program.

I've been staying busy with quilts, not much time for anything else. These are only a few I've done since the 41 I did at the firsts of last year. I think I ended up doing some where around 80 last year. This year I've slowed down a lot, can afford the fabric so much. But I've been doing what I can. I'm working on a special one now for a WW II vet in Roanoke. He is the last of my hubbies kin on his mother side. He will be 90 on May 5th and we have been invited to his birthday. I talked with his daughter and she really wants me to make him a Patriotic quilt because his wife died last year and what keeps him going is the monthly meetings with all the other WW II vets in the area. So I'm trying to do one that is special for him.

Glad to hear from you, we might have to get together again to do more quilts.

Thanks everyone for all the kind words.
Yep I have nothing better to do with my time so I do spend lots of it making these quilts but it's worth every moment.

Great job!! Thank you for doing this for all the deserving military people!! Bless you!!

you are one busy gal , thanks for showing.

WOW!!! Busy you were in deed. Thank you for giving them to those in service. From an old military wife ( hubby did 30 years) I can honestly say they will be apperciated. :)

Wow great job.

Your quilts are beautiful, and your heart is even more beautiful! What a wonderful, thoughtful, awesome thing for you to do-spending your time, money, energy for some very well deserving folks.

Excellent work for an excellent cause. My thanks to you for doing this.
