Honoring a Veteran: My Uncle

Recently I was honored to present my uncle with a Quilts of Valor quilt that I made for him. The Quilts of Valor organization is such a worthy cause. A Quilt of Valor is a quality-made quilt that is quilted, not tied, and it is awarded to a nominated veteran to say unequivocally "Thank you for your service, sacrifice and valor in serving our nation".

The quilt I made for my uncle is from a pattern that I designed called Ciara. I have made this quilt in a couple of other colorways and I love them all!

I originally designed the quilt for my nephew and his new bride, Ciara, and named it after her. 

Last summer I made another version in my favorite color of jadeite green. This one is all mine!

The Ciara quilt is available on my pattern website Thistle Thicket Studio. All patterns are $2.00 off during the month of February so hurry and get your own Ciara pattern!

Happy Quilting!
