    Default Two quilts from Josie for the vets
    After seeing my post about making a quilt for a new facility for low income to homeless vets, Josie Bass messaged me that she had a couple tops she would send. So I got them ready with backing and batting and another member of our guild quilted them. So now we have 50 quilts for the Manor as they are almost full and the new arrivals will receive a quilt when they come. Thanks Josie for the beautiful tops and your generosity. Aren't quilters the best?

    What beautiful quilts. Job well done Josie. Good Luck with the opening of this much needed housing for our veterans. We who live in the US should be supportive of our veterans who have sacrificed so much so we can enjoy our freedom.
