Another beauty by Kelly Summers. In her own words: As a quilter, a nurse and a military family member --- - I am married to a former marine, my brother is a career Army Helicopter pilot (33 years and still serving) and my father was career Army ---- I was thrilled to hear about The House Quilt Project. I have wanted to be involved with the wounded warrior project since I first heard about it, but living in Arizona I could not find a way to connect.
I saw a small article about Jamie’s project on Facebook and just had to learn more. After reviewing her blog I knew this was a way I could get involved. I told a quilting friend about it and we got together one Saturday and each made 2 wall hangings. We have told everyone who will listen about it and have plans this Saturday for a group of 5 quilters (all healthcare professionals) to make more. It is our hope to develop a steady stream of lovingly crafted wall hangings for these brave men and women who sacrifice so much for us. Thank you Jamie for letting me, and my fellow quilters, be a part of this amazing project. |
