    This touches my heart so much. This is a wonderful project, I just love the smiles and how they've wrapped themselves up in the love of these quilts. Thanks to all who have taken part in this.

    Remember, my internet access is very slow, it'll take forever to upload these dozen or so. I'll try to give you details as I post, too.

    Look at their adorable faces! Aren't they just babies?!

    These pictures are wonderful. Thank you so much for sharing.
    I believe the "sad young man" is probably homesick, now he has a warm hug from home.

    Thank you so much for sharing. Reading the captions have brought tears to my eyes. Those quilts will keep them warm and you can tell by their faces they loved them.

    Jan, thank you for sharing these wonderful photos and for giving me the opportunity to be a tiny part of this project. The fire is lit, and I will keep it burning. Whatever groups I work with, know that because of you, I WILL be quilting for our troops. Giant huggggggggs and smiles. Linda

    Thanks Jan for posting the pictures. Sure looks like they enjoy the quilts and love them being from home. As another said so good to finally have some faces of those I pray for , and see that some of them are safe at this time. They are so brave to fight for all of us and our freedom. What a great project. Thanks so much for what you have done, prayers for you as well.
