Our guild, Cumberland Valley Quilters is making quilts for the wounded and just sent a bunch to Germany, to the hospital. Soldiers Angels sends theirs to the medevac faility in Iraq and every wounded soldier gets a quilt for the trip to Germany, as some only have a sheet to cover them. They keep the quilts in hospital and for the return trip home. You should see the letters they get from the soldiers. Keep up the good work. They deserve it.
Thank you for the wonderful comment!
I'm not familiar with Soldiers Angels.org. I donate long arm quilting and quilts for American Hero quilts, they're a wonderful organization. Thank you for taking your time and recognizing our service men and women, they really do appreciate it!
