We're turning the big 4-0!
According to qovf.org, "A Quilt of Valor® (QOV) is a quality, handmade quilt that is machine or hand quilted. It is awarded to a service member or veteran who has been touched by war. The quilt says unequivocally, “Thank you for your service and sacrifice in serving our nation.”
To use the term Quilt of Valor, Quilts of Valor or QOV, the quilt must be a specific size, must have a label with required information, it must be awarded (it is not a gift) and it must be recorded.
For more information on Quilts of Valor and their history visit the official website HERE.
Our guild will occasionally hold our own Quilts of Valor Presentation to honor our veterans. Please look for announcements in the newsletter.
PAQG holds a presentation of QOV annually in November.
Private ceremonies have been held under special circumstances.
See committee chairs if you have a veteran you would like to nominate or have a QOV you would like to donate.
