I thought I would do a shout out for a blog I have just come across called Aussie Hero Quilts (and laundry bags). As you all know my hubby is in the Middle East so it means a lot to me knowing there are special people who give a hoot about our troops. I also know a lot of you lovely ladies have loved ones in the Defence Forces and that we are caring, sharing people and would always love to do something special for our troops to give them a little "something" to smile about.
Please take a look at what the lovely ladies have been trying to achieve with their gifts of gratitude. It started out making laundry bags and now quilts. I imagine it would feel ever so special for our military troops to receive something from a person they don't know and to know that we do really appreciate what they do for our country and for us in general.

Khristina, thankyou so much for spreading the word and also, and especially for the sacrifice you and your hubby and family are making for our country. Have a great day!
As my DH is a vet it is something close to my heart Khris. I enjoy sewing so think it's a great way to say thanks to folk like your DH.............

Hey Kris, thank you for sharing about this. I have bookmarked it to come back to and will think about (and then work on) what I can do to help.
Always nice to hear what people are doing for others.
A fabulous post Kris. This is one that i am planning on helping every month. Keep spreading the word!
Thanks for the info sharing. Sewing for a worthy cause is so satisfying knowing it would not only provide something useful or of comfort but hopefully put a smile on their face.
So does Glen have one of your quilts with him?
Khris...
God go with Glen and all of our service people!
big hugz
