I have turned to Quilts of Valor and the color theme is RED, WHITE, BLUE and GOLD
That makes things easy. I have been at several awards and it is hard not to tear up. I always get lots of hugs and kisses and that makes it all worth it to me. Not a single Vet has said they did not like the quilt.
I got the chance to visit one of the Vets that I had presented a quilt to and found it hanging on the Wall. When I asked he said that it was the only thing that he was presented after his service except his retirement papers. He was very proud of the quilt and his wife confirmed that he had to show it to all his friends.
I see the difference the quilts make in the lives of the Vets.
