Allegiance - a QUILT of VALOR Mystery

Allegiance Quilt - desgined by Vicki Welsh


I AM SO EXCITED!!!
the wonderful Vicki Welsh has designed a mystery quilt for us!!!  Today you will get all the fabric requirements - and on June 12th the first step will be revealed.

Why so long? For you to find your perfect fabric of course!!  Please share this with all of your Quilt of Valor friends and groups! This is a fabulous quilt, and beginners to professionals will be able to make it. It would be so awesome if we could flood QOV's gates with quilts!!!

Never made a Quilt of Valor before? THIS QUILT is a great one to jump on in with!!

This quilt is designed as a mystery quilt specifically for veterans and military. It’s offered in 2 sizes.

The larger quilt is for the Quilts of Valor program and will finish to approximately 68” x 89”. 

The smaller quilt would be Great for Honor Flight Northern Colorado. That version finishes to approximately 48” x 63”. 

Instructions will come weekly for 4 weeks.

Fabric Requirements:

Fabric	Color in My Version	Veteran’s Quilt	Quilt of Valor
Fabric 1 – block background	Light Gold	1	1.5
Fabric 2	Dark Gold	1.25	2
Fabric 3	Dark Red	1.75	2.5
Fabric 4 – background	Blue	3.25	4.75 (includes binding)

This quilt requires 4 fabrics:

The background can be light or dark. Fabrics 2 and 3 are the main design fabrics and should contrast well against the background. 

They should be “different” colors instead of different values of the same color. Fabric 1 should be a different value from Fabric 3. You can easily make this scrappy by picking 4 colors and pulling scraps in those color groups.

Some possible non-patriotic combinations:

Palette	Fabric 1	Fabric 2	Fabric 3	Fabric 4
Beachy	Sky Blue	Med to Dark Tan	Med to Dark Blue	Tan
Tropical	White	Yellow	Orange	Turquoise
Woodsy	Tan	Medium Tan/Brown	Medium Green	Dark Green
Flower Garden	Pale Green	Yellow/Gold	Red/Dark Pink	Green
