I was able to visit my Marine Corp son and his family over the long weekend. They live on Parris Island, SC. He is a drill instructor!! I was amazed that I had sent them so many quilts and they use them all!! They are much loved. Here are a few photos of the family with their quilts.

We had to search for the froggie quilt because Andrew didn't want anyone else using his quilt. He loves it. You did a great job on the quilting.

Isn't it nice to know they love and appreciate the quilts you've made them? I'm sure they feel so much closer to you as they wrap themselves inside those quilts!
Beautiful family! Nice job on all the quilts!

Love your quilts. My son is also a Marine; I can't wait till he settles down and has a household so I can make him a Marine quilt!

ranbro 09-09-2011 05:07 AM

Beautiful family and beautiful quilts to match.

GladGrams 09-09-2011 05:16 AM

I can bet your son's Marine trainees would never be able to see their "DI" as this cuddly daddy. What a wonderful feeling to see how much your quilts are loved.

almostfree 09-09-2011 05:17 AM

What great quilts! It is obvious that your family loves them....and you, too, no doubt!

julia58 09-09-2011 05:53 AM

jbj137 09-09-2011 07:44 AM

Nice quilts and great they all get used.

How did you like my state??

I live in the Upstate, but
my son was stationed at
Beaufort Marine Air Station
for about 5 years.

You have a wonderful family and have made some very beautiful and well-loved quilts. I love the airplane quilt - my daughter works at an airport and is always asking me to make "airplane" quilts - mostly as baby quilts - but I was curious as to where you found the airplane panels. Kari loves anything to do with airplanes and those panels would make great pillows. Again - a great family and great quilts.

kwilter 09-09-2011 11:30 AM

This is such a happy post! Wonderful to see quilts actually being loved!♥

carolynbb 09-09-2011 11:32 AM

WOW everybody has their own special quilt!! That's great.

grandjan 09-09-2011 12:16 PM

Wonderful happy faces. And wonderful quilts. What a blessing.
