Quote from Polly's email (with her permission)........

" ..... quilt will be shipped to Germany to wrap around a wounded
soldier. It carries the message 'thank you from America'. When I put
me to bed at night, I thank God for those who are far away protecting
us. God bless them and their families and other loved ones. Bobby's
a Korean War veteran and mostly he's just supporting with my baby
quilts - but he is always very proud of the ones we send to Germany.

This was her 'marshmallow/puffy' quilt which was tamed with 5days
worth of quilting. Good job, Polly!!

Thank you so very much for letting me share the Poof quilt with rctq. You
know, I had plenty of time to think about it and I believe I created that
problem myself. I remember stretching the backing and batting firmly and
then simply smoothing the quilt top over it. It could be that the quilt top
puffed up when the taut pinning of the sandwich was released. Could be.

Actually, Winston is such an animal. He's the first one out the door when
anybody mentions 'party'. Polly
