Polly's Hunter Star Quilt photos
Polly, is the Wounded Warrior project the same as Quilts of Valor or is it a different organization?

That turned out great. You survived the repitition
and it was well worth it. Thanks for Jenn's help sharing it. I think that quilt just moved up a few notches on my 'to do' list. TAria "Polly Esther" wrote in message ...

I think it's on my list, too, Taria. DH looked at the picture of Polly's and said, "That's similar to one
you've made, isn't it?" I said no, to which he replied, "Don't you think you should?" I guess that's telling me he likes it. Maybe I'll have to just make him one of his very own! -- Louise in Iowa nieland1390@mchsi dot com http://community.webshots.com/user/louiseiniowa On 11/27/2010 11:59 AM, Taria wrote: That turned out great.

Wounded Warriors was just a general term. Specifically, I chose Soldiers'
Angels after searching a few years ago for the most direct way to hug a wounded military hero. Soldiers' Angels has an APO address and the quilts don't have to be routed around like the other support organizations seem to. If you might want to see how you can help, look around at http://soldiersangels.org/index.php?...ankets-of-hope Polly "Louise in Iowa" Polly, is the Wounded Warrior project the same as Quilts of Valor or is it a different organization? |

I didn't get Jenn's posting either, but that's nothing new. There are
several people whose messages I don't get! Polly, the quilt is gorgeous.....so bright and fresh looking!

This was my first time to piece with a big print. My better judgment
warned, " You wouldn't!" and my fearless self said, "Watch me". I had no clue how it would go but it did keep me from dying from repetition. I have the attention span of a 2 year-old. Polly "Leslie & The Furbabies in MO." How yummy! The large print makes it so much more interesting than the often seen solids and small prints. I LOVE it! And Small Dresses is going to be adorable! |

Now you see, Pat, why I feel like I'm off the hamster's wheel. All four
Christmas tree skirts are done plus this one. Don't be anxious about 2 weeks without a roof. It's been 5 years since Hurricane Katrina and there are still folks here doing quite well without roofs. They just anchor a heavy tarpaulin over everything and apparently it holds nicely. Polly "Pat S" wrote in message ... Thanks for the amended link, Hanne! And thanks Jenn for showing us the latest Polly quilt. It is gorgeous, Polly; and the separate red and white quilting is certainly inspired. That red rose fabric is so beautiful. The red rose is England's floral emblem you know! |

I think that it is a wonderful quilt! *The extra work involved of using both red and white quilting threads were worth it - perfect choice. * If you look closely at the full view photo of the Hunter Star quilt, there is a teaser of another quilt project showing - 'small dresses' from a Fons&Porter pattern - Enjoy the photos. jennellh *http://community/webshots/com/user/barnyowl It's strikingly beautiful. I love the larger print also...it adds a whole new visual dimension. Congratulations, Polly, for creating such a beauty! Donna |
