Quilts of Valor Colorado

I feel like we are still recovering from the High Of Veterans Day - so many awesome Veterans all over the US were honored. I know we do this year round - but for some reason Veterans Day felt like the Christmas of it all!!

This one was cool for me - these are the Veterans in my Church
I can not tell you how nervous I was
We laughed - as I talk to millions and do ok - but these guys -
especially since I knew them - was nerve wracking

and we kept it a surprise
I have a big mouth
It's hard to keep a secret - but they were amazed!



This Quilt was made by Barbara - Quilted by Connie

Such an outpouring of love toward those that served our country! Just seeing all the red, white, and blue swells my heart. You did well, and made many of us proud. Thank you for your work.

I have no doubt that you were smashing as you presented these beautiful quilts to these very deserving veterans!
