    Default Quilts in the Parade

    Our local quilt guild made 61 soldier quilts that members walked with in a parade on rods. It was quite a pretty site. There was clapping and thank yous from the spectators. Tomorrow they go to a lady who will distribute them to wounded and deployed soldiers.
    Thanks vets!!![ATTACH=CONFIG]415825[/ATTACH]

    Incredible! We can't do enough to thank the men and women that serve our country. Your quilts will be much appreciated.

    What a wonderful idea to "parade" the quilts. God bless our service men and women everywhere and God bless those who give support to them.
