    Below are some of my finished Quilts of Valor. I prefer to do the piecing myself and use a QOVF long-armer for the quilting. I have about 10 (not exaggerating) quilt tops that need backing (each takes about 4 yards), so I'll soon be having a "stash" sale!

    This was a block swap

    Big mistake in this one -- can you see it?

    I really like that they aren't all red white and blue. I would think that some soldiers may not want a red white and blue quilt. You have done a lovely job on all of them. What is a QVOF long armer? I am assuming Quilts of Valor Free long armer? A long armer who donates their skill to quilt these?

    I saw a cool smile in the one you mentioned an error in. Do you mean you didn't do that on purpose :D

    THank you for doing these. I know they are well received. My dh has served for 27 years and we have known many who came back wounded. I know these quilts show them that their sacrifices were appreciated.
