My friend Renelda wrote a quilt book.
From Ensign's Bars to Colonel's Stars is the first in a series called
Making Quilts to Honor Those Who Serve.

Not only has Renelda written a book with patterns it also tells the story of her 25 years in the military.

She put a call out...any one interested in making a quilt from the book...that might be IN the book?

Oh yes, oh yes, pretty please?!:) Which one do you want me to make and what colors?
How about LT's Platoon and how about pink, grey and black? OK!
I'm a military kid and proud of it.

To tell a small bit of pop's story in a book was an honor.

I can't wait for the next book.

Love the quilt Dee, and did wonder about what seemed a big change in your weather....but carried on reading, and saw this was taken a while back, but it is all lovely.....quilt and reminder that warm weather is on its way.
ReplyDeleteYou were born in Alaska?! That is so cool. No pun intended. *g* I'd be very interested in the next book, too. Having an ex-Gunner spouse!
