Sharoni, thank you for bringing the Quilts of Valor project up again. This month, July, I will have been involved in this project for three years. I wish more from this generous group would participate. I thought making the QOVs would infringe on my own personal quilting, but not so.
I received a call from a Red Cross Volunteer over the weekend and she wanted to know if it were okay to give my quilt to a young female Marine who had just had her leg amputated. She is at the Naval Hospital in Bethesda, Maryland. Obviously, it is OK. I related that my label reads in part "for heroic service to his/her country . . .". Also, the QOV mission statement reads "for all those touched by war". -- Our destination coordinator is/has moved to Florida from DC and the Volunteer was unable to get an answer from her.
Please keep up your good work; we still have a lot of heroes to cover. Still at War, Still Quilting! Suzanne
