A friend of ours has two granddaughters who are members of ROTC, and asked me to make quits for them. It was my pleasure. What made the quilts even more special is the letter he wrote to each of them to serve as the quilt labels. That he wrote his messages in cursive makes the quilt even more 'vintage' to our generation's time.
One granddaughter plays golf and jumps out of planes as a member of the air corps.So the back of her quilt features Snoopy the Flying Ace, The other wrestles as a member of the Army ROTC and her quilt back shows a butterfly's wide wing span!
It was an honor to make quilts for these young women!
