Great work!!

Love the colors!

Thank you!

Lovely! They look very inviting they will be much appreciated Well done for supporting your soldiers!

Hot dog, I can't wait!!
Shipping the first box of 19 quilts today and *hoping* to have pictures taken of them before they go out -weather here is iffy today so space/lighting is a factor.

cjomomma, I've asked Bert to try to send pics of the quilts in use, but not holding my breath considering the conditions they are working in there. We can't ship batteries I'm told, so don't know how they'll have cameras operating now after 90 days in country.

By the way, SIL Bert advised my DD yesterday that the parts for the water pump arrived and they HAVE SHOWERS and laundry abilities! Woo hoo!! Can you imagine the lines at the showers?! Thank God for those men.

Great quilts. I've made five that I sent to Jan, but I only have a regular camera so I have to use up the roll and get it devolped onto a disk. It will probably be a couple weeks before they get posted.

Very nice!

So glad to hear they finally have showers!!!!
When my daughter was there in Afghanistan, she was outside of Kabul and she lived in a "hootch" with 3 other gals. (Unfortunately one was killed by a car bomb while they were there)

Your quilts are very pretty. But most of all thank you for your generosity to our troops.

Well they do still have electricity so if they have a camera that can be charged by a cord they can go that way. But if you haven't shipped yet add a disposable camera or two with the box then they can send you back the cameras and you can develop the film. This is a really sweet thing that you are doing. As a wife of a soldier I know it will be greatly appreciated. They all love and crave any taste of home. My husband said when he was over there that some soldiers don't really get any care packages from home. I always sent extra goodies but this really tops it all. A very noble gesture!

Phooey, fudge and darn! WHY didn't I think of disposable cameras for the quilt shipping boxes while I was at Walmart this
morning??!! I just hate the thought of going back there, LOL! It hurts me so to walk it. Sigh.

Suck it up and do it, Jan, even though you've been to the bank - inside the lobby, the newspaper office to make an appointment for an interview about us, lunch, and the National Guard - and walked all over that huge building and parking lot to their outbuildings (with a gorgeous young Sergeant, so not *too* bad :-o ) this morning already.

To the post office this afternoon.
