Back to veterans quilts

I didn't get in a lot of sewing this weekend. Mom and I went to Chesapeake Saturday to see her Great-Granddaughter. She was adorable, as expected. I'd love to share a photo but I have a personal rule not to share photos of kids on the internet. You'll just have to trust me that she's the cutest 1 year old ever!

But on Friday and yesterday, in between addressing Christmas cards, I got back to the veterans quilts and I put the binding on this double 4-patch. This is my 10th veterans quilt finish for the year and probably the 3rd or 4th time I've made this particular pattern.
​

The border is quilted with straight lines about 1" apart and the center is wavy crosshatch.
​

I also got this veterans top together and ready for quilting. Now that the postcards are done, I can get back to quilting some veterans quilts.

I don't know that I'll get much done today because I have set up some appointments to get estimates for re-siding our house. It's a week of appointments! 3 for siding contractors, 1 to have the carpet stretched and 1 to have a ding in the windshield fixed. It will all be balanced out by drinks with friends tonight and quilt club tomorrow night.
​Next week starts jury duty assignment so who know what that will bring.
