Quilt of Valor for my Hubby

My husband was a marine during the Vietnam war. He guarded the embassy in Saigon. I made this QOV for him...

That's gorgeous, SBG. I"m sure he loves it.

A very beautiful quilt for a very deserving vet.

The straight line quilting is the cherry on the top of the cake here. Your husband is very lucky!

That's a beautiful quilt SBG! And thank your DH for his service. My DH was in the Army during that time, and he finally bought a cap that says something about being a Vietnam Vet, and now he gets thanks quite a lot. It means the world to him.

Spectacular and thoughtful.

One of the nices QOVs I’ve seen...delightful fabric selection and great layout. I’m sure he is appreciative of your thoughtful gift and talent and he deserves something as nice to commemorate his service.

That is the most beautiful QOV I have ever seen! My late husband was an Army Vet from the Korean Conflict. God bless our veterans. My dad was a veteran from WW11.

Love the pattern Sewbiz ;) You're quilt turned out terrific! Love the super scrappiness of it and of course the RWB is a winner. I am sure your DH loves it. Our vets deserve as much appreciation as we can give them.

zozee 01-20-2020 10:07 AM

Like others have said, It’s one of the best QOV i have seen. So much eye candy, and I like the blue medallions fabric throughout, plus I’m a sucker pinwheels Well done, lady. Please pass my thanks on to your husband for his service.

alikat110 01-21-2020 04:30 PM

Beautiful quilt...

sewbizgirl 01-21-2020 04:51 PM

Thank you all,. and thanks to you for your or your loved one's service, as well.

Hubby doesn't really 'get' the whole QOV vision, but I made him the quilt anyway.

Ekuw, thanks so much for sharing your pattern notes with me!! Mine is just a shadow of your beautiful quilt. I got burned out with all the piecing so I didn't do the pretty borders you did. It will be a wall quilt. (It wants to be your quilt when it grows up!)

I tried to find Ekuw's quilt picture which inspired me... but couldn't in this new format.

anonymous 01-22-2020 05:01 AM

Sewbizgirl, that quilt is just a wow!! I am happy you made it for your husband and the quilt will get to live in your home. I treasure all of our veterans and want to specifically thank your husband today.

SusieQOH 01-22-2020 06:20 AM

That's gorgeous!!!! What a wonderful tribute to your husband.
