My Medal of Honor quilts

I finally have pictures of the quilts I help make for the Medal of Honor recipients. The first is the one I made for Thomas Jerome Hudner, Jr. I picked him to honor my Mom's brother.

This next one, I worked on with my Fiber Art group. We call ourselves FAC (Fiber Art Chicks) at FAB (Fiber Art Blount). FAB is where we meet once a month. We all made blocks and then spent a couple of meetings putting it together. We picked James E. Livingston. One of our members got to meet him during the convention. He and his wife were lovely and loved the quilt.

The last quilt was made by my friend Bridget and quilted by my friend Cyndi. All I did was put the binding on it but they put my name on it which was so sweet. It was a Gold Star Quilt. The Gold Star quilts were for MOH recipients who either received their medal posthumously or died prior to the start of the MOH Knoxville quilt project. Ours went to the family of Joe R. hooper.

This entire project was such an honor to work on. To read the stories of these incredible men and their bravery.
