Quilts of Valor will always accept these for "Presentation Cases"
Each quilt that is made is presented in a pillowcase. The case helps keep the quilt all together while in transit to its new owner, and do not have to match the quilt. (Donations of the presentation cases are greatly appreciated) <g>
I put in this tutorial video because it was made by the Quilts of Valor group that works in a church just down the road from our Post - - and, many of the quilters are members of our American Legion Family.
This particular group organized a whole Quilts of Valor quilt presentation to every service member who served recently in Afghanistan (when they all got home).
That project topped out at 307 quilts made and presented within one year of the decision to do the project. They worked with many groups throughout the county to pull it off. <wave>
