Please tell your dad THANK YOU for his service.
I've made one, which is still at the volunteer longarmer's - hopefully getting quilted (he's had it since 11/9 and I'm so anxious to get it back to bind & label & create the presentation case)! I'm currently working on several other QOV, getting them finished up for a LA. I wrote an article & asked for "just one block" on my blog and have received MANY from quilters across the country to create a "community" QOV! It's so exciting, and heartwarming, knowing I can give back something, even if years later, and it's only a little tiny bit compared what our Veterans have given me/us!
