    Default Freedom Flight Quilt
    My donation to the local Freedom Flight organization that takes WW2 vets to Washington DC to see their memorial. Each participant gets a patriotic quilt upon their return. This was a pattern that said it took 6 hours to make the top....me = longer :-) I did machine quilt it myself, which I usually don't like to do, but it wasn't THAT big.

    I am not into contemporary quilts but this looks great !! I am sure someone will be honored by receiving your quilt. My Dad fought in the Pacific but died in '88 before quilts were being made for WWII vets.

    Pretty, love the design, I never heard of the cause, but sounds like a great one.
