I have posted a link about inmates making an American Flag to honor American Soldiers. It is so wonderful to hear of MEN piecing quilts.

I didn't read about this specific quilt but I read about this group in my Quilting magazine this month. Amazing stories. They make quilts for the homeless and families of fallen soldiers. It's a great program
