Default Veterans Quilts being presented Oct 22, 2012

Some of the wonderful quilters in the Nebraska area have made these wonderful quilts, they will go to
The Dr. Maurice J. Hart Veterans Center. This is a transitional apartments and have 26 apartments for veterans who have become homeless. These are beautiful quilts these ladies are so generous with their talents. The quilters in the area have also been donating toiletries to the center as well, so far about 3 suit cases have been donated.

Fabulous, fabulous, fabulous. Please convey to the vets how grateful we are for their service. That they would be homeless is a travesty!
