Bless you for your kindness and generosity. For some reason I am having trouble seeing the pictures. When I am able to do so, I know that I will love them all. BrendaK

This is some of the pictures taken. I am not very good at uploading pictures but here is some of them. Thanks everyone for the kind comments. My blessings came from watching each of these Veterans accept their quilts.[ATTACH=CONFIG]535952[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]535953[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]535954[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]535955[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]535956[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]535957[/ATTACH]

How cool..gave me shivers to think of what these veterans have endured and what you've done as well as others to honor them..

M. Elizabeth. If you are still on the board, you can submit a request for a Quilt of Valor for your son via (I think) www.qov.com or www.qov.org. It's the quilts of valor foundation.

Wow! I can't imagine making that many for vets - but it is a wonderful thing. My son served twice in Afghanistan and came back with a serious case of PTSD. He would be thrilled if he were recognized in this way.

Please do so....he should be recognized. Thanks!

My quiltmguild has just started doing this. This will be the third year. We have given away almost 100 quilts so far. Thisnevent takes place the Saturday before Memorial Day. We (the town) call it Hero Day and it is an all day event with music, food, games for the kids, and giving away quilts. Yours are beautiful.

GOD bless you and the other quilt makers. From what I could tell from the pictures they loved them. We don't thank and praise them enough. BrendaK

You are a generous person, loving the veterans and quilting. My DH and I received a wall hanging when our son was doing 2 deployments in Afgan. It was for the family of the soldier while he was gone...When he got home, I explained the note and quilt to him and gave it to him...
