From a distance, they look a little busy, but in the up-close pics, they look fine. I like a place to rest my eyes when I look at a quilt and yours gives me that. I find some of the newer quilts in the mags that use all print fabrics do not do that for me. Thanks for making quilts for our brave service men.

BYW, do you remember that I mentioned Bert fell off a village roof while on patrol and was banged up a bit? He says he has a big old bruise on his back but is doing pretty good now. Can't wait for those pictures of the men and their quilts!
Does anyone else want to make some for this group in Farah, Afghanistan?? PM me, please.

I think each one is excellent. In our active world we may see them as 'busy'. (I don't but some do.)
The person who receives each quilt will have somewhere for their mind to 'go to' as they enjoy each square. It will take their mind 'away' for moments as they drive those cars, race those motorcycles, and enjoy the nature in the tiger quilt. You have given them joy. I like each of them and applaud you for making them.
