Quilts of Valor

The Quilt Market in Salt Lake had an special exhibit this year...Quilts of Valor. These were all made for a service man or woman. They are just so beautiful. Such a wonderful way to honor someone.

This one might be my favorite. I just love the subtle zig zag in the red and the stars. Very beautiful. 

Since 2003, the Quilts of  Valor Foundation has distributed over 40,000 quilts to service men and women made by QOV volunteers. Check out their website and find out how you can help honor these men and women who keep our country safe. Tell us about who you have in your life that serves our country-We would like to say thank you to all those who sacrifice so we can be free Americans.
