For my husband, Marc, a Navy vet- rescue swimmer, who dedicated his life to this country. My father, Dean, an Army vet.
Enjoying the quilt along – picked up the cross stitch pattern and will be trying it on larger weave fabric for a more primitive look. Thanks for giving us something to look forward to every week!
Oooo! A secret prize! I love secrets, as long as they’re not my secrets! Thanks so much for for doing this sew along, I love to see everyone’s progress and all of the blocks popping up on social media.
Love this week’s block and this stitch along! So happy that you have surpassed your original goal and a deserving veteran will be receiving a hog. Thanks for all you do Lisa!
I love everything about today’s blog! The sailboat block is such a cute addition the quilt; supporting Katie, a military wife, is awesome; and seeing the love that Hogs for Heroes is getting is so incredible. Not every soldier gets that kind of understanding, and believe me when I say, transition to civilian life is a long, hard road. Thank you, Lisa, for your heart to this mission. You are making a difference. 💕
Thank you. All of you have worked (and are still working) so hard to bring us such a great destination quilt shop and retreat center. It’s on my bucket list—just wish my quilting friends were able to travel during these uncertain times. I’ll get there though!

Lisa, Thankyou again for this stitch along, i am loving this!!!
And, you are getting very creative with your captions for each block!!
Can’t wait to meet you & see your Beautiful shop & retreat center next month!!
I can’t thank you enough for this sew-along and for supporting our veterans! I cannot wait to give this quilt to my hubby to hang under his father’s flag and medals from WWII.
What a day to post an American theme! God Bless our military and I pray that no more have to pay the ultimate price for my freedom. This is such a great cause and thank you, Lisa, for your efforts.
Thank you for such a wonderful sew along and helping such a good cause. These small blocks are worth the challenge. It’s going to be a beautiful quilt. I am loving all the blocks.
Hi Lisa, I have followed this SAL over the last 12 weeks and copied every block pattern. I haven’t started making the blocks yet, it on my to-do list. I will be making it for my son-in-law who will be retiring from the Army in 2022. Thanks for this great quilt pattern!

This is such a wonderful sew along to be participating in and it warms my heart to hear all of the comments and stories about all our service members. I thank them from the bottom of my heart for their service and it’s because of them that we can appreciate the freedom we have today. Blessings to all of our military service men and women for their great sacrifice.
Thanks for the great videos, Lisa. Yesterday was my last day at work, so today I get to get caught up on my quilting!!! I watched each week, while counting down down to today, when I knew I’d finally be able to enjoy quilting & sewing full time again!
Thank you so much Lisa for this sew along. I am going to make this quilt for my father-in-law for his 25 years of service. I just love how you do things with your quilting. I have learned so much even after 25 years of quilting myself. Thank you again!!
