Veterans Day honors everyone who has served in the United States Armed Forces. According to the Department of Veterans Affairs, there are roughly 17.5 million veterans living across the United States today. They’re our neighbors, coworkers, teachers, business owners, and community leaders. To honor our veterans, here is a patriotic quilt with stars.
Dedicated, made and quilted by Elena Bennett (Arizona)
Dedicated was based on a pattern by Tony Jacobson. Elena Bennett says, "A larger version was presented to Jimmy who served in the military for over 25 years." We photographed this quilt at the 2025 Tucson (Arizona) Quilt Fiesta.
