Quilts of Valor for brothers
5 Attachment(s)
My sisters and I had a little quilt retreat at my house this month. We made 2 Quilt of Valor quilt tops for our brothers. Their time in the service (Air Force and Navy) was in the 1960's and I don't know if anyone has ever told them how much we appreciate their service. So, we took a week out of this summer and created these quilts for them, I quilted the one with the red and white stripes and another will be quilting the other one. I am so proud of this collaborative effort! Labels are made but not pressed and attached yet!

I love those. The one with the red strips I saw on FB and am looking forward to making one. Great job.

Between brothers who fought for our country and sisters who lovingly stitched those treasures I'd say you have an amazing family :)

They're both wonderful. Please thank your brothers for serving. We can never say thanks enough.

Both are wonderful, but the second one is my favorite!! Lovely tribute to your brothers service.

What a thoughtful gift. It is so important that our military people be honored not only by strangers, but by their families. Your brothers will be deeply moved. Bring the Kleenex.

I didn't start quilting until a year or so ago. I wish I could have made one for my two brothers who served but they're gone now. I'm glad you two did this and honored their service. Great job and gorgeous quilts.
|
What a lovely gift. The guys sure didn't get much of a welcome home so I'm glad you made these for them.
|
Great job on both.
|
