    Thought I would show my 9-11 quilts in honor of the date. The first one is made with firemen's patches collected just after 9 -11. It hangs in the Firemen's union hall in our town. The second one is from a challenge last year. This one was a collaboration of three of us. It was donated to Fischer House at our Air Force Base, a place where wounded soldiers and their families can stay while the soldier is undergoing treatment or rehabilitation.
