Can One Volunteer Make A Difference?

 This One Can!

Let me 'show' you...

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

Eagle panel w/gorgeous coordinating fabrics

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!
