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."

Hi ladies, I haven't posted very often on this group but I did want to show you a few of the quilts I have finished. Hope you like them. Paymaster - I like that your sewing room is so organized. I turned my first sailor's room into a quilting room when she left. When my second on goes in in Sept. it will become a guest room.

Audreymema.....I must confess I am a bit complusive, so I tend to have things laid out where I need them. I have to put things back, so I know where I can find them. Being complusive has it plus side along with its down side. But I have learned to live with it and make it work for me.
When I took the pictures I was working on two different quilts, so yes that's as messy as I tend to get.
Glad you liked the room. My husband did the addition along with all the walls, base boards, painting and floors. It was his idea to do the diagonal on the floor. He says it hides the fact that the room is not totally square. I just like the disign of it.
Audreysmema, come on over and we can sew together and play in the fabric!
