I don’t know how many of you get USA Weekend magazine in your Sunday newspaper, but last weekend there were articles about the “20th Annual Make A Difference Day Awards”. And the one featured on the cover page was a quilter. Linda Wieck of Wisconsin runs the Camo Quilt Project that places hundreds of quilts to active servicemen each month. You can read about her and her organization at:

It’s amazing what one person can accomplish when they put their mind to it. Our Quilt Guild gives many quilts to the Wounded Warrior program here in California. We probably send 50 – 100 quilts each year. Plus we sent over 120 Christmas Stockings also.
