After September 11, 2001, a quilt shop in Georgia, Little Quilts, asked for small quilts to be sent to them to give to the families of all the firemen who perished in the World Trade Center.
I made one (the "flag" log cabin on the bench photo) and sent it in...they sent me back a postcard saying they had recieved 2,200 small quilts....and the photo of them all layed out together!
Now my daughter lives just "up the road" from "Little Quilts" and I was able to visit the shop recently....what a treat! I did forget to mention to them that I had sent a quilt back then!
