Barb Shillinger is "working on the Home of the Brave quilt project. Our WA chapter is making a memorial quilt for the family of each fallen soldier or marine listing a WA town as their hometown. We have lost 35 young men so far in Iraq and Afghanistan. We have heard from 17 families so far, and are making quilts for them. We are desperately seeking the other 18 families. Addresses are needed."
