I'm sorry, I don't know much about the project you mention but I was asked by a local fireman if I would take on a quilt project using commemorative patches he collected from other firemen from 911. With the help of many members of my guild and the community we put together this quilt. As you can see it is a flag. It was fairly difficult for me to machine sew all of the patches he had collected but he was beside himself when we presented it to him in a ceremony on the 1 yr anniversary of 911. It is hung in the fireman's union hall in town. The fire captain felt it was too important to keep to himself and wanted to share it with others.
