    This is a quilt I made for my DB
    I designed and put together some of their info he graduated from VMI in VA in the 60s and just retired in Jan I couldn’t find any fabric with their logo so I bought a pair of pj’s and used it as fabric after I got it together I saw several things I should have done different but I didn’t have enough time to fix it I think he was pleased and it defiantly is original. I did some appliqué and script on my Baby Lock machine
    I left a few blank squares for him to fill in about his work stuff
    and freinds
