Over her we make quilts for our solders in care but never know who receives them. What a brilliant idea to match soldier, quilt and maker all in one go . I wish I knew who had received mine as it was made with love and care. Over here my friend and I spent 2 hours travelling to a group who were putting quilts together. Tops were donated and backing and wadding,. On the day a room full of over 50 ladies met armed with sewing machines and thread and spent the day sandwiching and free motion quilting them together. My friend and myself took ours home and arranged to send them back as we did not have time to finish the binding by hand. These were all taken to a hospital for injured soldiers.
