    These are the Quilts of Valor I have completed. What an amazing privilege to make these for those who dare to give their all for us.

    I clicked on "edit description" but it wouldn't put a description in. How do you do that?

    Thank you. The first pictured quilt arrived Monday and is already wrapped and under the tree for Joseph in Alabama. He is heading out in March for his fourth tour in Afghanistan. Imagine!!!! I met his mother-in-law on a Yahoo group for Dutch cooking and she told me about him. I felt compelled to make it for him.

    How touching...to know that you were making it for a specific person and to have met the family.
