We have four beautiful quilts, each with its own unique story and style. Let's take a closer look at what's on the line. #### Star-Filled Navy & Cream Beauty Pat Sloan and Bobbie Yoder teamed up to piece this striking quilt, featuring a star-filled design in shades of navy, sky blue, burgundy, and cream. Custom quilting by Suzanne Yerks adds gorgeous feathers, swirls, and texture throughout. The back is finished with a bold teal stripe fabric for an extra pop of color. This one-of-a-kind piece was made using the Blue Mill collection for the Virginia Quilt Museum by Pat Sloan for Benartex Fabrics. #### Elegant Christmas Charm Lissa Alexander pieced this elegant quilt with a subtle touch of Christmas. Using classic shades of berry red and pine green, with hints of floral and nostalgic music-sheet prints, this 56-inch by 56-inch Haven Quilt shines. Designed by Fat Quarter Shop, it pairs beautifully with Magic Dots and Berry & Pine by Lella Boutique for Moda Fabrics. Michelle Parker of Sew Many Quilts added festive texture with her "Oh Christmas Tree" pantograph quilting. #### Patriotic Star-Spangled Wonder Sherri McConnell of A Quilting Life gives the Haven Quilt a fresh patriotic spin. Pieced with her upcoming collection, Midsummer by Sherri & Chelsi for Moda Fabrics, this 53-inch by 53-inch design comes alive in bright red, white, and blue florals. The "Daisy" quilting pantograph complements the collection with a charming floral flourish that's sure to catch your eye. #### Soft & Romantic Floral Dream Kimberly Jolly's quilt is a peaceful, romantic masterpiece. Soft florals in navy, sage, mint, and ivory give this 53-inch by 53-inch design a serene feel. Kimberly pieced it using True Love by Lella Boutique for Moda Fabrics, allowing delicate prints to bloom among scattered stars and sweeping rays. The "Leisha's on Point" quilting pantograph overlays an elegant lattice of interlocking diamonds, and a custom embroidered dandelion label adds a meaningful finishing touch. ### Why Your Support Matters As we wrap up our 13th annual charity quilt, we're reminded of the incredible power of this sewing community.
