These quilts also go to the Denver VA, and its off site locations as well as the Greeley, Fort Collins and Cheyenne WY VA's
These are Quilts of Valor that are ready to go to soldiers in various deliveries. I did not make ALL of these quilts. They have been made by the loving quilters named with the quilts.
