More veterans quilts

The big event of yesterday was finally starting the installation of a generator and propane tank. This has been such an ordeal. The generator was the easy part but working within county code to find a place where we could put the tank (that wasn't in the front yard) has been the challenge. But a project that started in February is now finally underway. After lifting the tank off the truck it just needed a little slide down a hill and it could be put in it's new home.
We were without power most of the day while the electrical work was going but I seemed to find plenty of things to keep me occupied. Doing some crochet would have been perfect but I'm off crochet for a few weeks while some inflammation in my left hand relaxes. Instead I removed binding from the vulture quilt that I'm going to enlarge, I stamped some beach bags for dyeing and worked a puzzle.
​But as soon as the power went in I rushed to the basement to quilt 2 more veterans quilts to take to quilt club last night. Here are the most recent ones completed since Saturday.

I have such a backlog of veterans quilts that they are now getting super fast quilting treatments. I'm in "get-'er-done" mode. That means ribbon meander, wavy cross hatch or wavy "straight" lines. Both of these got ribbons.

This is the first one that I finished yesterday. I love the red thread on the gray backing.

I love the way the piecer used this brick method to create a scrappy quilt. I have a stack of patriotic scraps and I might just have to do this too. Wavy straight lines on this one. I had both quilts quilted in a hour and a half!
