Throwback Thursday

Here is a throwback post from eight years ago. I sure do miss my Stitching Sisters QOV group! Enjoy!

Finish It Up Friday ~ Snowball QOV

Posted on November 17, 2017 by katyquilts

I think this might be my favorite QOV that I have made.

I started out with a layer cake that I bought with a gift certificate from Mr. Wonderful. I added some fabric from friends Zenia and Ila, and this panel from Barb V.

The backing was also from Ila. It was so perfect for this top!

Thanks to my friends for adding their bits and pieces to this quilt! I was so happy that I could go to the Stitching Sisters Sew Day last Saturday. These ladies are just the best! Here are some pics from our presentations on Veteran’s Day.

All of these veterans have received QOVs from our group.

I presented my quilt to Bud, a Navy vet that served during WW2. He worked on troop transport ships in the Atlantic.


Here’s a pic of some of our group.


It was such a wonderful time. I love this organization and my Stitching Sisters!

Have a great day!
