    Default Retirement quilt for son in Air Force

    Finally finished the binding on our son's retirement quilt. I enjoyed every minute while working on this quilt as it was a reminder that he would soon be out of the military. I sent it to Charismah for quilting, she is the best! I asked her to do a Babpist fan because I wanted something simple to go with the simple design of the the churn dash pattern. I think it turned out beautiful.

    Military folk are the ones who preserve our freedom and way of life and deserve our thanks. Please share with him the thanks from all of us. Your quilt is beautiful and so is Charismah's quilting. Sandy 64

    Beautiful quilt for your son. Thank him for his service to our country. My son also retired from the AF a few years ago and I was so proud of him.
