OPSEC - Navy Operations Security
Always keep Navy Operations Security in mind. In the Navy, it's essential to remember that "loose lips sink ships." OPSEC is everyone's responsibility.
DON'T post critical information including future destinations or ports of call; future operations, exercises or missions; deployment or homecoming dates.
DO be smart, use your head, always think OPSEC when using texts, email, phone, and social media, and watch this video: "Importance of Navy OPSEC."

Nice job Darsete I like the Patriotic pattern, didn't know you quilted too. Quiltlady thank you for sharing the link for let's tie one on for our troops. Eaglemom as soon as I get finished I will post the Eureka quilt. It has taken me way too long and at this point I just want to get it done and move on to something else. Like one of the 6 other projects I have stacked up.

I am just working on little aprons for the granddaughters. Just using Easter material. Their mother likes to wear aprons, so I thought it would be cute if they had their own.
I get to go to Weahington at the end of April, Fabric Depot here I come! My SIL quilts also, so she has mapped out our travels to all the fabric and quilt shops for the weekend. I will more than likely start a new quilt up there. We should have a blast!
Until then I will just work on community service quilts (simple one). Should be able to crank out a couple before I leave for Washington.
JM thanks for mailing those off. Looking forward to getting them!

I am currently working on a pattern called Eureka. Very complicated. Has 8 types of blocks that can have from 8 to 20 of each block. It has taken me longer to do this one then any other quilt I have done. If anyone has any mystery quilt patterns to share I would appreciate it greatly. Clean quickly so you can get to work.

Paymaster, I copied the pages today at work and I plan on mailing them out tomorrow. I have about a dozen. Eagle mom I made another copy if you are interested in this sort of quilt pattern. I will just need your snailmail address. Oh they are mystery quilt patterns, mostly by Debbie Caffery
