Grandpa's Quilt

My grandmother asked me to make a winter quilt for my grandpop this summer. She told me no hurry which apparently I took to heart. Now, its two months later and I haven't pieced it together yet. My grandfather is one of my favorite people in the whole world, going at 88 years strong he will be turning 89 on september and I want to be able to present the quilt to him on his birthday.


My grandpop, Joe, is a World War 2 veteran who served in the Army Air Force in Asia. He was the gunner in the fighter planes. The cubby was so small for the gunner his parachute didn't fit. He has the most incredible stories that we all love to hear!







I am doing a patriotic theme for this quilt with rows of pinwheels, and triangles. I will get more done eventually!!
