Swirls and Ex's and Stash

This quilt just makes me smile.  It was made from some of my favorite stash fabric, with some Kona White.  I kept it simple with the quilting.  All freehand, of course.  A little bit of whimsy, with a little bit of ruler work.  I used a neon orange thread for the straight stitching - what fun!   I didn't use a pattern, just really kept it simple.  It will have a new home in January when my daughter delivers it to someone special. 

Another Home of the Brave Quilt

I did a quick 'swirl' on this one.  I had wanted to do a panto with words on it:  courage, bravery and honor, but didn't like the way that it was directional.  I think the swirls look nice on it.  I love the fabrics that were used on this quilt.  I do not know who pieced this one, but it was done extremely well.
