QOV for retiring officer
 

This is for a dear friend who will be retiring soon from the Canadian Armed Forces. He has dedicated
over 35 years of service and sacrificed much time with his family to proudly serve his country.

Quilt design was inspired by Debbie Mum’s Apples and Bars quilt. I swapped out appliquéd apples in the setting triangles for Big Stitched maple leaves in #8 Perle cotton.

Quilt is simply quilted with diagonal serpentine lines with my walking foot on my domestic sewing machine.

Lovely quilt, I am sure he will appreciate all your hard work!

I love it and so will your dear friend!

I'm sure your friend will love it, I certainly do. Beautiful quilt

OhCanada .... Perfectly Oh Canadian!
The maple leaves are a perfect twist on the original pattern.
Certainly a nice tribute to one of our retiring armed forces members.

Curious here ... did you go with a Canadian print for the backing?

What a lovely QOV! Well done.

Great quilt!!!

Nice masculine looking quilt. I love your big stitched maple leaves, yes..very Canadian. I am sure he will be thrilled with it!

what a nice gift. I love your maple leaves

What a great QOV! Lovely job.

The Maple leaf is perfect for this special occasion. Please thank him for his service and dedication.

It's Perfect. Nothing like a QOV for a veteran, or even active duty. My QOV sewing group met today. We always have a good time.

Beautiful quilt for the officer. May he enjoy his well-deserved retirement!

Great quilt!

Beautiful and perfect for the recipient! Love the maple leaves!

I loved your accolade that you introduced your quilt with. My husband served with the United States Navy for 30 yrs. I think your friend will be thrilled with your handsome quilt.
