Have any of you been to a Quilt of Valor presentation? One of my friends runs the local Quilts of Valor organization and they presented 5 quilts Friday and will present another 10 during the county fair next month.

Feel free to reply to any comment by clicking the "Reply" button.Never heard of them before. That is interesting. Are they presented to special ex-servicemen and women or homeless ones, or who? Do they have special designs connected with the armed forces? Tell me more!

The ladies that make QoV use all different patterns but they're usually red, white and blue. Panels with patriotic themes are popular. The quilts are presented to past service members and it doesn't matter if they served in war time or peace time. Anyone can nominate someone for a QoV. One of the gentlemen we presented a quilt to last week is 100 years old.
