Ooo, I see mine, the 7 in upper left first photo..YAY! Have to tell you a story. Was joining some friends at a tea room and there was a truck parked outside with a bronze star license plate! We were talking about it when the guy came out..I asked if that was his truck and he said yes. I asked what he did to receive the bronze star and he proceeded to tell us he was shot 12 times and saved the lives of 400!!!!!! We talked much longer but in the end I asked if he'd received a QOV and he said no. I asked if he'd like a QOV and he said yes!!! So I've got another QOV to make--YAY!
What a wonderful idea, Sherrill. Aren't connections between individuals fantastic and inspiring!
Lots of fun Wonky Stars. I'm going to stitch on mine till next weekend then send you however many I manage to finish.
