QOH Panel Challenge Complete!

We finished our Quilt Of Honor Panel Challenge quite awhile ago - ahead of the deadline but, had to wait 'until' ALL the submissions had been made and judging complete!  There were quite a few entries and each and EVERY one was amazing...Congrats to each one of the Winners!

Here's one of ours, ready to be completed just in time for awarding to a very deserving area Veteran over our upcoming Veteran's Day Celebrations:

A QOH Panel Challenge - FUN!

Our fearless Quilts Of Honor leader, Gail, has issued a panel challenge for those of us willing to take her up on her offer.  Once we saw this gorgeous eagle panel and the accompanying rich fabrics, we knew we just had to participate in this exciting panel challenge!

Panel Challenge - eagle panel and fabrics to be used

Even though Gail gave us a deadline of September 1, 2020 - Illiana Quilts Of Honor has chosen to finish ours a month early, so it may be awarded to a very deserving Combat Veteran during one of our upcoming QOH Award Events in August.  However, we won't be sharing ANY of our completed quilt challenge pics 'until' this panel challenge deadline is met ;-)


Happy sewing EVERYONE!

Challenging Times - We'll Face Them Together...Thank YOU

Greetings Everyone - hope this message finds you Safe & Healthy!

During this challenging time that we, as a nation are currently facing, we will continue to sew & quilt to honor our beloved Combat Veterans and Service Members for their service and sacrifice for our country.

While we may not be awarding in public venues for the time being, we are confident we will be celebrating our Veterans during our 2020 Veteran's Day Celebrations.

In the meantime, as QOH nominations come forward, we will either:

1. Ship the completed Quilt Of Honor with ALL accompanying documents to the intended Quilt Of Honor Award Recipient OR 
2. Make arrangements to award at a more optimal/convenient time.

Please don't hesitate to contact me w/questions, and know that your Volunteer efforts are so appreciated by our Veterans.

Each and every Combat Vet and Service Member that we have awarded almost always has tears in their eyes and is so grateful - many tell us later, or one of their family members will share, that for the first time in a very long time, their Vet is sleeping soundly without nightmares, under the comfort of their Quilt Of Honor.

Your Volunteer efforts make a difference in the lives of our Combat Veterans and Service Members...One Quilt Of Honor at a time...Thank YOU.

Blessings to You and Yours in 2020,

Deborah Lindley/Coordinator
