QOV #61 Done

Woo Hoo, I finished one of the QOVs today and am loading the second on.

I just did stars around this one. It seemed to fit it best. I actually like the stars on most quilts. I used a red/white/blue variegated thread and I hate that it will decide to break and then work really well. Only one pass was a bad time. Seems to want to break often.
The next QOV is by the same group, and is many of the same fabrics, but does not seem to cry for stars, so I'll have to figure out what I'm doing on it. LOL It has a large white border, so I think white is the right color thread to use.
I'm half way done with the quilts that need to be quilted this month. I'm getting tired of only doing the quilting, so I might have to do something to break down the boredom. LOL We shall see.

See I like this one- looks like a couple of nickle packs opened and sewn together. I love stars in my Vet quilts too. When I did the Broken Dishes one I used hearts and stars.
You're doing a great thing for our soilders....Hey Matt heard from Daisy in Boot Camp- it's pretty hard but she's still in it -Maybe I should make her one.....or the group can help later in the summer......
