That is awesome that you are doing this. These quilts really do mean a lot to the servicepeople. They can really feel the love when they snuggle up with them.

Thanks to you and your guild for doing that!

I fear I have nothing of the proper size in the works to participate this time as I do most of my piecing and quilting by hand. Will however keep the Quilts of Valor organization in mind for future projects.

Wow - you are awesome! If you ever want to - the organization does have volunteer long arm quilters that will machine quilt the quilts for free.... just a thought.

I am impressed that you do it all by hand - what a beautiful thing!
