The American Legion Auxiliary members adopted bags and filled them with toiletries. They will be given to the women veterans when they come in for treatment as a little thank you gift. The six quilters made a total of thirty bags, each one an individual design. They were such a success that the Auxiliary members begged for us to make more and sell them. I did make one extra for myself all in purple fabric with an embroidered red hat motif on the front. Can't wait to use it on a Red Hat trip!<br /><br />Margaret from Long Island, NY<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7539234892740454664-3321542156657157389?l=quiltbagsforva.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>Margaret from Long Island, NYhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04531662556477078610noreply@blogger.com0
