My quilt guild makes twin sized quilts for wounded troops in an American military hospital in Germany. The 9 patch blocks are designed by the public at community events then we quilters assemble, quilt, bind and label the quilts. The American Red Cross ships the quilts for us. Most of the fabric is donated but we do buy the batting and some backings. To date, we have shipped nearly 500 quilts of which I have long arm quilted 314. While I am getting a little weary of doing all that quilting, I do believe in this project and will most likely continue to do so as long as there is a need.
