I'd bore you with the crazy details of why it's taken me so long to do this quilt top, but let's just say I found a few more of my quilting weaknesses. So without further adio, I give you a Quilt of Valor quilt top.
This was a quilt kit from the Quilt of Valor Foundation.Here's a link to our friend, Quiltfrenzy's webpage for directions. It's called a Faux Log cabin, and had the piecer read her directions, I'm sure it would have turned out better.
But to quote Hunnybunny,"It is what it is...."...(How profound!)
I also won a eBay auction for some quilting software last week! I rarely EVER win, I usually just get the Buy It Now option. But I saw this Quilt Design Wizard, made by The Electric Quilt Company, so I thought I'd at least try it. I'm sure I'll go up to the EQ6, but this will tide me over.

Oh your quilt is just beautiful - I love the faux log cabin pattern, it's so much quicker isn't it? And it does look like a log cabin! Lol* I'm not sure if it's quiltfrenzy's page or another set of directions, but mine were a little goofy and I ended up with way more blocks than I needed. Lol* It was still fun though! :) A soldier will be proud to recieve your quit! :)
Looks great. I am trying a wreath wall hanging while in Oregon. I quilted one baby quilt and Daughter is quilting a wallhanging for the baby's room. She is doing GREAT. Her stitches are way better than mine when I started. I really miss all of my family in Ky. and our daily meetings. Can't wait to get back.

I for one don't see what you're whining about--I LOVE that quilt! I have a fatal weakness for red and white or red and cream, so you know it's a winner with me. Have fun with the Wizard.
Looks great! Thanks for taking on the project!
The quilt looks great. I wish I had time for quilting (and room!). Someday I will come back to quilting.
What it is is pretty great, I think! Someone is going to love it.
