    I love the veterans quilts and being a Air Force Veteran myself I figured I would purchase this, even though it was not made for me, but the intended did not want it, so I bought it and can pretend it was made for me, right?. Just wanted to share, it is made by the Munising Quilt Guild. Awesome huh?!

    It appears it was really made for you, it just took a detour getting to you. After all it was intended to belong to a person that had served her/his country (which you did) and it was made for someone that would love and appreciate it, which you do. So that tells me, it was made for you.
