    Default Shh... don't tell my son
    After my son retired from 20 years in the Air Force my daughter-in-law gave me some of his uniforms and asked me to make a quilt. I cut the pieces where the different patches and name tags were to make use of them. I got this throw size quilt and another one. I thought bed size would be too heavy.
