    As most of you know my SON IN LAW is currently serving in Afghanistan. The Iowa RED BULLS have lost 2 soldiers this week. I have heard of quilts of valor but had no idea what to do until My daughter forwarded this on to me. How many of you can help out with this one.

    Many, many of us are already working on or have sent blocks for this cause.

    Bless your son, his unit, and your military family.

    This is a great project. My quilting group has been busy making stars for it. I know a lot of others doing the same. Makes me feel good to be able to help.

    Please say "thank you" to your son from me. I have participated in this Moda endeavor. Thank you for sharing.
