AHQ quilts seen on CBS

In an On The Road segment, you can see some of our wounded warriors arriving in Germany with our AHQ quilts on them.  The segment is about a grandmother who is also supporting our troops.  Nice to see our quilts providing the service they were made for.  Thank you to everyone who supports our project, and projects like the one featured in this clip.

Thank you

Thank you to all who help with The American Hero Quilt Project. Because of your help we were able to send a second shipment of 100 quilts to Afghanistan this year already.
As 1 recipient of an American Hero Quilt said, "When I arrived in Germany it felt like I was going into an island of America with all the Red/White and Blue quilts in the room. One of the other patients asked if I had seen the label. It means alot to us. Please keep the quilts coming."

Please remember that all monies collected and quilts made in the name of American Hero Quilts need to flow through Sue Nebeker on Vashon for documentation. Thanks.
