Donation for Homeless Veteran fundraiser

Our guild is helping in sponsoring a homeless vet fundraiser next month. Went through my things and found this kit that was purchased a year or two ago. Thought it would be a nice little gift, for a table topper. Used verigated red, white and blue thread for the quilting.

Very nice!

I really like that. Had to laugh at myself , though, because I was thinking, on first read, "what's a homeless vet gonna do with a table topper?" I'm slow sometimes... haha. Hope you get a good price for that.

Our guild also had as their charity quilt project, the Veterans', and it was a huge success..seems everyone wanted to donate to help our vets. We had a couple of older Vets come and sit with us and the people attending appreciated coming over to talk to them.
Here was my donation to the project.it is paper pieced.[ATTACH=CONFIG]576732[/ATTACH]
