Patty taught a new block, a floating star, for work at home. Boyd and Shirley bundled 11 quilts to longarm. The highlight was presenting a quilt to Larry, a Vietnam veteran.
Thank you Larry for your service!
We are a busy bunch of quilters that strive to provide quilts as our small and humble way of saying "thanks" to our returning troops. Rita Pennington (garipenn@att.net) is our "Drill Sergeant" and she keeps the (quilting) troops moving and motivated. We have 6 monthly sew-ins North of I88: St. Charles, Elgin, Rolling Meadows, Crest Hill, Geneva and Montgomery. See side bar for more info. Join us on Facebook: Illinois Quilts of Valor
