QOV is only ONE of many ways to make quilts for service personnel and wounded warriors! Here are a few more that might interest you.

If you google Wounded Warrior Quilts you will see many locations that are making and donating quilts for this purpose. If there are none near you, consider contributing through some of the guilds/groups you find here - after emailing them for their standards. Or you can do so through your local American Legion.

This is SUCH a rewarding and fulfilling endeavor, you will be blessed by it. I personally have made it my mission to reach out to all the local military personnel I hear about in our local news, keeping it hometown and personal. This allows me to actually see the person the quilt is given to in many cases.
