Description - All-Star Quilts of Valor: 25 Patriotic Patterns from Star Designers by Ann Parsons Holte
These 25 quilt designers are big names in the quilting world, and here's one more reason to admire them: each has created a new pattern specifically to share the Quilts of Valor organisation's commitment to "cover military touched by war" with quilts. The 25 quilt designers here know the ways that quilts can honour and even heal. They created these new patterns specifically for Quilts of Valor to share the organisation's commitment "to cover our veterans and service members with comforting and healing Quilts of Valor." Featuring clear, easy instructions and patterns, here is everything needed for quilters of any level, community groups, and family members to make a beautiful patriotic quilt for the special service members in their own lives, or to donate to honor a worthy Quilts of Valor recipient. The 25 quilt patterns are varied and inspiring, and you can mix and match patriotic colors and fabrics to make your own personal version of each, including "V Is for Victory" by Georgia Bonesteel, "Shine On" by Victoria Findlay Wolfe, "From Sea to Shining Sea" by Marianne Fons, "Stars and Stripes" by Mark Lipinski, "Thumbnail" by Paula Nadlestern, and so many more. Features a foreword by Kimberly Einmo, author, award-winning quilter, fabric designer, international instructor, quilt judge, and CRAFTSY/Bluprint class host.
