You mentioned a short journal that was written to tell about how to make a quilt - great idea for when we give our quilts away. Most people don't have a clue, and don't know what hand piecing, or hand sewing, vs. machine work. <br /><br />LOVE, LOVE the photos. 8-)))Elaine Adairhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14664504842156046995noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26538443.post-82120499639209820592013-12-18T19:17:11.780-07:002013-12-18T19:17:11.780-07:00It warms my heart to see these presentations and h...It warms my heart to see these presentations and hear the stories, and I am honored when I get the name of a vet from you to present a quilt to....there's just no better feeling!

I always tell people that men like these and the other "lifers" of all eras were patriotic long before it became fashionable. It is difficult to teach that, but you are presenting your sons with the gift of living history and true examples of patriotism.<br /><br />Thanks again for all you do.<br />phxquilthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04376378569705132444noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26538443.post-29003344001466148302013-12-18T09:55:08.225-07:002013-12-18T09:55:08.225-07:00Beautiful, simply beautiful!Beautiful, simply beautiful!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04984975627443306762noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26538443.post-32105371699387562882013-12-18T09:54:02.883-07:002013-12-18T09:54:02.883-07:00So nice....both are wonderful stories.
