Dad's Quilt of Valor and More from The Modern Diary

When we left this Quilt of Valor, it had the sashing finished and border added to bring it up to the right size. If you missed the first post showing the block and how it was made, click on Quilt of Valor.

It was loaded on the longarm, and I chose a navy blue thread for quilting. This time I used a cotton Masterpiece thread on top and Bottom Line in the bobbin.

I have a Stars and Stripes pantograph, and I just don’t like it. It is so linear that it is not only difficult to get the ...
