    Default My quilt of Valor...

    Well, not really a Quilt of Valor technically, but I posted about this a few weeks ago. I finished it and got it mailed off to the soldier overseas and he got it today! It made my day to get the message from him on Facebook! He said he loved it, and it smelled so good! Even the guys in his tent came over to smell it for awhile because nothing over there smells good. LOL! It's on his bed and he loves it! This feels SO good! Just had to share!

    Quilters make great comforters.

    How awesome is that!!! I thought the Quilts of Valor got sent to some large organization and they handed them out. That's cool that you got to mail it right to the person!!

    That is wonderful Libby. QOV does send them out to who ever. I like the idea of knowing who is going to get that special quilt.
