I'm not a quilter, but I want to congratulate you for demonstrating the true American spirit that made this country the greatest in the history of the world.

If more people had your attitude we wouldn't be in the mess we're in now. People who do for themselves don't vote for more government.

God bless you.

I live in Memphis, my quilt guild makes Valor Quilts for the wounded, we've shipped over 200 so far in 2 years. We also make quilts for the Alpha Omega Houses in the Memphis area, they provide homes for homeless Veterans who are recovering addicts and are terminally ill.

This along with what we do for a local nursing home (Christmas stockings), adult bibs for a altzimer day care, and quilts for Le Bonheur Children's hospital and the Shriners for the burned/disabled children they treat, and we supply quilts to a local PD for children who have been in wrecks or fires.

Look for a quilting guild in your area. We have about 65 active members in ours the youngest is 8 the oldest is in her 80's.
