American Honor II

 The third and final quilt using panels from the American Honor fabric line by Vicki Gifford for Riley Blake Designs.  The pattern is called Stars & Honor by Needle in a Hayes Stack.

I machine quilted this one with an edge to edge design called Live Wire by Meredith England.  I have had this design for many years (long before even having my longarm).  I just copy designs in a smaller format to work with my Brother 1500 on my Grace Start Right frame.  I did use my King Quilter 18 longarm for this quilt so the design was enlarged to fill more space in a row of quilting.  I used Glide thread in the color Linen.

The quilt finished at approximately 53" x 64" and is machine bound.  I called this one American Honor II as I utilized two of the same soldier panels for my projects.



As we enjoy our patriotic holidays this year let us keep in mind those men and women who have served and are currently serving this great nation in the military.  We cannot leave out their dear ones who wait patiently for them to return home.

God Bless America!
