You did a fantastic job for a great cause. You and your friend should get the QM of H (Quilting Medal of Honor)for this outstanding accomplishment.
As a cold war vet, I had the privilege, at the request of my sister, to make a comfort quilt for returning vets this past September. It was my second quilt and a total of 168 quilts were requested. It was a lot of fun and I learned a lot about quilting on that project.
