I am currently
stationed in Afghanistan with the United States military and today I received a
beautiful quilt. I cannot express the appreciation I feel for all of the
volunteers and donators that contributed to these quilts ending up here, with
these soldiers. I am amazed every day at the giving spirit of the
American people and the blessings of our Lord. After reading the story of
the Camo Quilt Project, I can't help but wonder why we don't hear more stories
like this instead of all of the bad in the world. Your story certainly
has the hand of God in it. America is the greatest country in the world
and organizations like yours and Glacier Transit & Storage is what makes it
so great! Thank you and everyone involved for the quilts, we truly
appreciate them!
May God continue to Bless the USA!
Thanks again,
Dorothy Stroud

Lap Quilts
We are now making lap quilts for the our veterans in assisted living and nursing homes. We have made 200+ Lap Quilts so far.
They are a small quilt measuring between 32" and 42" wide by approximately 42" to 50" long. The front of the quilt is a patchwork design made of patriotic fabrics. There is a small pocket with the veteran's name on it. The back of the quilt has fabric representing the branch of service the veteran served in. They are just large enough to cover the person and not interfere with the wheels on a wheel chair.
