This post Dedicated to the Countless Volunteers who choose to labor tirelessly to help create and Award Beautiful Patriotic Service quilts to Honor our Beloved Veterans and Combat Service Members for their Sacrifice and Service for Our Country.
Some gather together to sew/quilt in various venues/quilt shops, while many others steal moments of time in quiet solitude to stitch strips of fabric together:

They do this to create quilt blocks:

| Patriotic Fabric Strip Blocks = Blue |

| Patriotic Fabric Strip Blocks = RED |
...that will then be sewn into Beautiful Patriotic quilts:

These Incredible Volunteers thoughtfully sew these gorgeous Patriotic quilts - NOT because they 'have to', but because they Want to, to Honor our Beloved Veterans and Combat Service Members for their tremendous Sacrifice and Service for Our Country - it's a True 'Labor of Love' for these Amazing individuals.
