American Hero Quilt

This quilt is a special one for American Hero Quilts- a charity that gives quilts to wounded service men and women who have served in Iraq and Afghanistan wars. I signed up to volunteer as a quilter, so a box full of 4 tops and backings was sent to me to quilt and send back to be finished and sent to a very deserving recipient. 

I did a fancy feather in the solid navy border.

An all-over in the center area. I love how this quilt is so simple in construction, yet a lot of thought and effort was put into the placement of all the directional stripes as well as the way the red and blue frame the setting blocks.

Thanks to whomever made the quilt, and especially to whomever receives it! Glad to be able to have a hand in it.
