Update Below:
Hi Cuties! Just finished piecing this, but can’t hand off to a quilter as our group has decided not to meet, for a while. Covid high here. Will go to a Veteran eventually. This panel seemed to have enough going on that I wanted something simple but meaningful. Never tire of seeing our flag colors.
Hope all are safe & well-Toogie
Update-Cuties I told my husband as I was looking back at my first picture that I saw a mistake. He said he didn’t see it, until I was finished, but he wouldn’t say anything.
Now I told him I know it’s good to have a job you can work from home, but that’s a good way to get fired!
I love you Cuties too and none of y’all said anything either, so I’m putting y’all on notice too!-lol
I hadn’t extended my red/white stripes down on bottom right!🙄😳🤣 I guess I was so focused on placing the navy around in wide pieces and the corner of panel, that I went on out the side with it.
Don’t you think second photo and corrected top is better? Hubby said he knew I’d want to correct it. Well sure I would. He just better be glad I noticed it BEFORE it was quilted or he might have got worse than a pink slip!!!-😂🤣🤣lol
Thanks and I know how disappointed you must have been not being able to enjoy the day you planned. I hope you sewed when you got home and made something spectacular!
I am going to start a Navy veterans panel tomorrow. I haven’t quite decided what I want to do with the fabrics I have on hand. Thanks for looking.
This says it all and wouldn't look half as good with a fussy design around the panel.
Stay safe.
I like your second version better; this turned out so pretty! I like red, white and blue too - our flag is 3 horizontal stripes in those colours. That central panel is splendid!
I don’t like the cutting out part so I better keep him working. We are cutting out for stars today to go around a panel for a vet that was in the Navy. Bunch of quarter square triangles to make. Thanks!
