WOW!

I have cried so much. Thanks to everyone that has sent a PM. I took the box of fabric to work this morning and the children were hugging it and talking about how much they like this piece or that piece. It brought tears to my eyes to see them so excited.

These children are Military children and so them learning to quilt will go all over the world, and they can share it with other children.

I have 5 parents that went and got their child sewing machines. So this is something they want to do and will do for a long time.

I am on my lunch break and just checked the PM's and was blown away with the KINDNESS you all have shown.

You each may hear the children YELLING when I go back and tell them they will be getting more fabric and sewing supplies. I am going to take my camera back to work so I can take some pics of them working today.

The children want to start cutting squares as soon as I get back to work.

I will post pics of the quilts after the Mini Quilt Show.

The children are now thinking of a name for their Quilt Group.

God Bless each and everyone of you. If I did not send the addy yet I will tonight when I get home.
