Quit of Valor, mostly a 'skyscape'!

 A Desert Sunset landscape quilt, full of color and warmth. A quilt of valor for a soldier long returned from service.

 I don't have or can't purchase locally, the fabrics I want for my next Quilt of Valor, and unfortunately had to go online to purchase. Once I saw how long it takes for them to cut a piece of fabric (3+ days) and then to ship (longer than what it takes for a completed quilt to be shipped and delivered) I decided I would not be purchasing online again, it appears to be a racket!

Some of the fabrics for the next QOV

Tucson Sunset

Landscape Quilt - I've always wanted to make one as a QOV

My next Quilt of Valor - Who says that they all need to be red, white and blue?!! Especially for veterans of long past wars. An image of the American Southwest is just as celebratory, right? I happened to see an ad, for a calendar, and I am taking my inspiration from this. I've done art quilts before, so, onward! I've even done landscape quilts before, but it's been a while, and it's time to do another one.

Update: This quilt went into the mail on March 1st, with the last quilt I created at the same time. I think I may try my hand at a couple more of these 'type' quilts. Folk Art at it's finest.

One of these may be my next attempt!

Choosing fabrics

I think I add a base to each block
