Quilts of Valor

Under our Wings at Country Traditions, Fremont, NE. We completed 8 of 12 quilts to the binding stage, tops were provided by Lincoln QOV. Country Traditions also had rookie piecers with experienced coaches sewing for 2 1/2 days, 2 new quilting rookies finished their tops, those will be presented to family members who are now deployed. Other piecers were sewing flag blocks for CT's block drive. It was a very successful event and Country Traditions might do it again. Accquilt provided a Go! Baby for a door prize and it was won by a 3rd generation quilter, her grandmother was her coach.
