Piecing with Patriotic Panels -
fons & porter's love of quilting

Lori Thompson, executive director, of the Quilts of Valor Foundation, joins us to explain why quilt panels are so popular with veterans, and how you can make simple adjustments to make the measurements work. You'll hear tips about selecting fabrics to coordinate with your panel, when and how to miter strips, and how to make ever-useful Sawtooth Star blocks that can be swapped into most any design.
