    Default Quilts for veterans

    Hi quilters! I wanted to show you that we honored 8 veterans with a quilt Thursday. We were supposed to present 10 but two vets were unable to come. I think each one was beautiful and unique if I do say so myself. Love our service men and women! These are the two I made and I hate when I have to resize that they load sideways. -Toogie

    Thank you for sharing pictures of the ceremony to honor the veterans. I Love that the quilts are wrapped around the men like they are receiving a Hug of Love for their service. Both of your quilts are outstanding and are sure to be loved.

    Oh, your post just warms my heart - your quilts are exquisite and the pic of the veterans wrapped in their given quilts is just wonderful.

    This type of sharing is exactly what the QB is all about!
