Here is a picture of Steven Kiernan’s dad and 14 year old brother receiving the Wounded Warrior’s quilt for Steven.  I took it to them on Wed., June 9th.  They were very impressed with it and will ask Steven if he wants it now or when he comes home.

I also gave him the letter and signatures with a brief note about care of the quilt, all in a pillow case I whipped up with the new pillow case instructions I learned at guild.

They said he had been gifted two quilts since he came back to the U.S.  One a small quilt and one a fleece wall hanging with Marine symbols on it that was from a Marine group of some kind.  They thought ours was the most useable and I assured them that we want him to use it a lot.

It was a pleasure to see the family again.  I appreciated being the one to deliver this lovely, meaningful quilt to them.
