Thanking Our Troops--God Bless American Touring Quilts

"How do I love America-let me quilt the ways" is the theme of the 200 twenty-two-inch and larger patriotic quilts featured in this full-color gift book along with their heart-warming stories of patriotism and gratitude. These quilts are blanketing America for four years with all profits from the books and $100 exhibit rental fees going to provide quilts for wounded troops like this soldier. "Like a mother's loving arms, this quilt is our hug for our hero-a gift of thanks for protecting America. It expresses our gratitude, love, respect, and honor to forever hold and comfort you." This is the greeting sewn on the back of the quilt that Staff Sergeant Logan Ballew received after receiving the full impact of an exploding bomb in Iraq.
