Alot of groups donate quilts to the injured and KIA families. So i figured they were covered by lots of loving and generous quilters..
when my son was on the front lines, he asked for a quilt.
(said he wanted to be wrapped in his moms arms and night)
so i started by making him one and it snowballed to others in his group/flight/platoon,whatever you call them..both of his deployments, i made quilts,although with the second deployment, he wanted one in fleece..with the help of fellow quilter friends here at home.
There is a group that i know of that does the same thing..
"QWL"-Quilts with Love program. They tie alot of them.
but a wonderful thing to do..the pictures he took of his little room and bed, looked a little like home!
bless all the people that are able to help out in this ways and other ways too! thanks for sharing the link!
sorry the picture is so small..he is holding the corner of his quilt up..
He wrote on the "thank you card" "Keeping us warm,keeping you free"
