Thank you for you generous time and effort to make such a beautiful quilt. As a retired AF person, these quilts do mean a lot to our deployed men and women.

This quilt was made from scraps-how much easier can it get!! It truly was my pleasure to make it.

I don't belong to a guild or anything, but would donate quilts as I am able to make them.

The Military room at Hancock is called the Gregory J Harris Military Coutesy room you can find out more about them here : http://www.gregharrismcr.org/

I just did a search and discovered that many airports have hospitality lounges for the military. Some fall under USO but many others are like the ones mentioned above. What a wonderful way to support our troops.
