This is one of the quilts being made for the soldiers deployed with my daughter to Afghanistan made with blocks donated from members of this board. With me is the 8 year old Australian quilter who put these blocks together. He is flying back to Australia today so we had to get a picture before the borders were put on.

He made a rag quilt, then he pieced and quilted a lap quilt for himself (he gave the rag quilt as a gift), then put those blocks together for the soldier quilt. He really loves quilting!
