What an honor to be told that you are one of the Iowa Heroes and you get to actually put in your stitch on the flag. Freedom Quilts was given that honor on Feb 24th when the National 9/11 flag came to Eagle Grove. For nearly a decade Freedom Quilts has been making quilts to comfort families and it all started right after 9/11. The honor of putting a stitch on the flag that was found at Ground Zero all torn and now going to all 50 states to be restore was a true honor. Freedom Quilts not only put a stitch on the quilt but help others put a stitch on the flag also. We are all restoring the flag which makes us united a reminder to us all that when we stand united we can also restore our country. The flag is a symbol of how great we can be when we united something we should never forget. Freedom Quilts is no heroes we are just a group that band together to bring comfort to 9/11 families then flood victims and now fallen soldiers families.
April the 2nd we will be honoring some Iowa soldiers families.
