And on the 6th day...
 

My DS called me the day before Thanksgiving and said "Mom, what would you say if someone asked you to make a quilt in two weeks?" I believe the look on my face was the only answer he needed but he went on to explain it was for his unit and would benefit local soldiers and since I have two sons in that unit, how could I refuse and I didn't. He showed me a picture of the quilt he wanted and I drafted a pattern and called on my cousin for help. It has the Soldiers Creed embroidered on the white strips and I can't even recite it now without choking up...In 6 days, we completed the quilt and I delivered it to the armory this morning. This is the most meaningful quilt I have ever made and I'd do it again in a heartbeat...but not while working and most definitely NOT in 6 days!

a work of love. beautiful job.

thank you and your sons for serving! I include you because as a Mom of a soldier, I know you also serve in your own way.


This is so beautiful and I can't go further cuz I'm choking up also.

Totally AWESOME!

more than awesome! I don't have words to say the thanks that I (as all Americans) owe you and your sons. Beautiful work!
