Heartstrings quilt for a soldier
Here's my heartstrings quilt I made using the quilt-as-you-go method. I've been working on these blocks off and on over the past two months and it's finished now except for binding. The really neat thing about this type of quilt is when you get the top all together - you're done! It was a great stash reducer and used up some small pieces of batting also. If I'm happy with it after it's laundered, I'll send it off to a soldier.

That's BEAUTIFUL, JoAnne! LOVE IT! Did you take a class on the quilt as you go? I took one a long time ago at QD but never made a quilt using the method. Some soldier will be VERY happy with that beauty! And you're SO tech saavy, too! What a woman! HA
Way to go!
Your QOV is totally awesome and it will keep someone warm and cozy through hard times :)
What beautiful quilt and I'm sure it will be loved and treasured by a soldier.

You made a wonderful quilt! I'm sure it will be greatly appreciated by whoever receives it!
It's a gorgeous quilt! I like the thin sashings between the blocks.
