Here is a link and a little info on a “big” project I am coordinating. I would love more help – come join me! What we are a making is a memorial for those who have died in the Iraq war. A small 6″ square quilt to commemorate the life of each American military casualty, and on each square, 212 French knots, or beads to acknowledge the loss of Iraqi life. You can read the whole story at that blog site and see the tutorial.
Here’s some photos:
