It was a day now we get the whole month. Is anyone making anything to celebrate our special month :?: :D :P

Everyday to me is quilting day!!! :) I have a pile of projects to work on!

I'm not making anything special for Quilting Month but I am working on several things right now, including a star quilt for a wedding gift.

Ruth, are you working on anything special?

I am going on a quilting retreat for the weekend, and our guild will be making lap quilts for the wounded soldiers. They are going to Walter Reed Hospital.

To recognize National Quilting Day, a lady in our quilt guild is going to teach Eleanor Burns' Quick Trip quilt. She has about 15 signed up for the class.

I'd celebrate if some quilt store had a 75% off sale!!! :D

There is an organization in my area, West Virginia, titled "Boatsies Boxes". They periodically send supplies to the soldiers. I am sure that you could start this wonderful project. If I find out more, I will let you know. It is important that a label be attached so that the soldier receiving the quilt will know who made it and sent it. If I can help anymore, let me know. granny

I think what you are looking for are called quilts of Valor Here is a link
