We have all spoken those words....I would give my life for (name a loved one) if you would stop the pain.The plea was simple, it seemed more like a trade " ... I have a sewing machine, I don't use...my friend, a vet is suffering so..." - read, please help - stop the suffering.
Actually, these words are spoken more often in honor of our veterans than you might think.
The MSP Quilting Angels heard the call and began a loving journey of understanding who the patriot is, what he experienced and how the heirloom Quilt of Valor would meet the soldiers needs and provide comfort to the family and friends too.
The unveiling was in an appropriate setting, a Blessing of the Quilts. Each heirloom Quilt of Valor is hand crafted, blessed, folded and placed in a presentation case.
The picture here tell the public side of the story. The rest they say is for the heart.
God Bless you Kathy R., Patty and Tony – our heroes!
Quilt on Ladies, There are many more deserving families like Patty and Tony.
