    Default Patriotic Round Robin

    Last year, our guild did a round robin. Since I didnt need any more quilts for myself, I decided to do it for Miracle Quilts for wounded soldiers. I made the four patch center, others did the rest.

    Then because it was memorial day, I decided to choose my own soldier instead of letting Miracle Quilts do it. I gave it yesterday to my son-in-law. He has 19 years service, served in Desert Storm, two tours of Afghanistan, and Korea in peace time. Because of his injuries,he is now finalizing a medical retirement.
