Good Timing!
This was a pleasant surprise! Vince told me this morning I had received a letter from the Governor and I couldn't figure out why the KY Governor would be writing me. I have no idea how he knew about the QOV project but his letter couldn't have come at a better time. Vince scanned it and sent it to me in e-mail. I'm kinda proud of myself! :) Making quilts for our injured soldiers is such a great project. If anyone has time to make a quilt or two, please check out the QOV web page. Judy L.

What a nice, unexpected thank-you letter! I really try to send a thank-you card for unexpected kindness - sent 2 just this week. You just never know - the person who receives it might really need a cheery spot in their day. I am happy for you that you have found a calling with the QOV project - I am sure many, many military thank you every time they see their quilt.
Cheers!

good to get sanil mail that isn't a bill, and is in fact something positive. Congrats.

Judy:
We have some things in common and that is we both make quilts for those in need. God bless you. I love your stories, your sharing is from the heart.

I enjoy reading about people that still quilt, can and are happily married.
