Just saw this story on CBS news tonight and it really touched me...I'm not a quilter, but I do sew (ok, a little :)) but this lady makes quilts for injured soliders at Walter Reed Hospital out of jeans--after her story aired, she received a gazillion pairs of jeans, but now she needs quilting supplies....I thought it might be helpful to post here, in case anyone wanted to donate something. She seemed like such a wonderful individual...she and her husband, both retired, cut the denim squares nightly, and she sews all day at her kitchen table.

Here is the link to the evening news, though I can't seem to find this lady to save my life!!! Perhaps they haven't posted it yet....Ok, NOW it's on there, right on the main evening news page.

Just think of all of the roads there are...all of the things I haven't seen....yet.
