Here's another quilt top you didn't see. The blocks were all made from fabrics from your grandmother's stash and some of the whites from scraps from your clothing when you were growing up. I wanted you to see this here because it's now a quilt very far far way at the Evan O'Neill Memorial Veteran's Home in Massachusetts. I told you about him, he was the son of one of my quilting buddies. He was killed in Afghanistan. All the members of our quilting group made one quilt each for the beds there, and a block for a special wall hanging to be hung in the Lobby.

ReplyDeleteThanks Pugknits. He was a swell kid, and only 19 years old. How his mother and dad kept themselves together we'll never know.
