All-Star Quilts of Valor: 25 Patriotic Patterns from Star Designers is a brand new book that will be published at the end of this month—but we have an early-release offer especially for Quiltfolk readers!

Our October Book of the Month has arrived just in time to commemorate the military members in your life. Whether you would like to honor someone with a patriotic quilt this Veterans Day, gift a comforting keepsake to an active service member, or donate a Quilt of Valor®, the patterns within this collaborative book will be your guide! 

You may also notice that many of the designers have previously been featured in Quiltfolk, such as Tony Jacobsen, Marianne Fons, and Georgia Bonesteel!

About All-Star Quilts of Valor
The 27 quilt designers here know the ways that quilts can honor and even heal. They created these new patterns specifically for Quilts of Valor to share the organization's commitment “to cover our veterans and service members with comforting and healing Quilts of Valor.” Featuring clear, easy instructions and patterns, this book includes everything needed for quilters of any level, community groups, and family members to make beautiful, patriotic quilts for the special service members in their own lives, or to donate to honor a worthy Quilts of Valor recipient. 

The 25 quilt patterns within the book are varied and inspiring, and you can mix and match patriotic colors and fabrics to make your own personal version of each, including "V Is for Victory" by Georgia Bonesteel, "Shine On" by Victoria Findlay Wolfe, "From Sea to Shining Sea" by Marianne Fons, "Stars and Stripes" by Mark Lipinski, "Thumbnail" by Paula Nadlestern, and so many more. The book also features a foreword by Kimberly Einmo — author, award-winning quilter, fabric designer, international instructor, quilt judge, and CRAFTSY/Bluprint class host.

We have a limited number of copies available now, just for our Quiltfolk readers! So be sure to order your early-release copy, while supplies last!
