    Default Patriotic quilt

    This is a free pattern from howdear.wordpress.com that was posted on pintrest. I am giving it to an Air Force Veteran that gave my Grandaughter a large sum of money because she is not getting to work and going back and forth to Childrens Hospital with our precious ggd who has wilms tumor. She has had 6 chemo treatments and it is not shrunk enough so she has to take 6 more chemos .

    What kindness this vet showed your family. You made him a lovely quilt that I am sure he will always treasure.

    I love your quilt and the fact you are giving it to a vet. Keeping your family in my prayers.

    Love your quilt! God bless the vet and praying your ggd is healed! I saw this pattern and wanted to make it for my sick bro-in-law who is a vet! Are the directions easy to follow? Yours look great!

    The quilt is great, but the backstory is awesome. No good deed goes unnoticed. That is such good news. God bless all of you.
