QOV 2015

Happy Happy Wednesday!!!

It has been a crazy crazy week for me... I have decided that I really like to stay home... so I am going to try that.... soon.... and then I will be bored and ready to travel again - right?

All of our Quilts of Valor go in pillowcases. I like this!  One - it keeps the Quilts clean during transport - and two - they USE them!! A lot of our Quilts are going into Barracks and they are boring rooms - the pillowcases spice them up!

So thanks to a LOT of folks - including JoAnne - we have pillowcases:


JoAnne also made these next two beautiful Quilts!!!

The next 5 Quilts Come from the Amelia Island Quilters. They are SUCH fabulous Quilters - and they are so creative. I love what they come up with.... and someday - in the middle of the winter I am going to visit them.... but only when there is 6 feet of snow here. That way I can rub it in!!

I agree, staying home is nice. Hope you get a chance to do that.

Beautiful quilts and beautiful smiles. Your Wednesday posts always make me smile.

Alycia- The Quilts are beautiful! I especially love the one with the Compass, also. Keep up the good work! All Veterans deserve to be treated special!
