Memorial Day...Remembering Our Soldiers

Since 2007 Pine Needle Quilter's have been by making quilts for our soldiers.  Some have been given to the wounded, homeless, hospice, and the deployed.
This year we have made 47 quilts, with a few more that I know of that will still be coming in.  These quilts will be going to a unit out of Kentucky that is being deployed in July.
Thank you to all who have made quilts through the years, and helped with the parade and display at the Veteran's Memorial Day Service.  Your giving has brought comfort to many, I am sure.
Our total quilts through the years is now at 502!  Your continued support for our soldiers, past and present is just heartwarming.
