Beautiful block! I would love to copy your quilt.
Wonderful block – love the name. The quilt is so great!
Tavy’s block and quilt are really honoring to those who have given so much … it made me smile to see how she named her block Mt Vernon … I was blessed to be able to go there this year and see the historic value of that place and what it means to our country.
And on this day, the 235th birthday of the Marine Corps, it is very fitting for her quilt to be “A Heroes Welcome” … very honoring… and QUITE beautiful !
I love your block and would love to win a copy of the book. I also enjoyed looking at your pictures of Quilt Market. I was there at the show a couple years ago and hope to go again some time.
what a great block!!
Please include me
