We would like to express our heartfelt condolences for the families who have lost loved ones in our different fields of combat. It was wrenching to see the 13 warriors come home to the U.S. and Dover and to think of all of those who have come before.
We have left Afghanistan. So many people have asked if we will continue to need the same level of quilts as we have before. I would love to say that we are shutting down, unfortunately we have received no indication that the requests will decrease any time soon. It is too soon to see what that region will look like and what our level of involvement will be. We hope you will be willing to stick with us for a bit longer. The minute things change we will let everyone know. We too would like the level of need drop and us not be needed anymore. In the mean time thank everyone for their continued support.
Sending our best wishes and support to our service men and women and their families. Thanks also to all our wonderful volunteers and quilters.

Hi from Tacoma. With the closing of Pacific Fabric in Bremerton , and unable to contact Iona. We need a drop off spot for the quilts we have done at home because if Covid .
We have started are Hero workshop again so there will be more coming.
Thank you for all that you do on the finishing end. Darlene Joyner
Good morning Darlene. I will send you an email with contact information for Ione. You can also find her by sending email to brick house quilting.
Thank you all so much for all your support.
I cannot find the address to donate (mailing) the quilts when finished! I have read all of your topics and still cannot find the address. Can you please send it to me. Also, you only accept binding that has been cut on the bias? I have 2 panels that I bought and would like to make the quilts around them. These would be my first 2 quilts. How does this organization differ from the other famous one started by MaryAnn Fons? Just wondering why another group was formed? Is it because your group provides more support in the process for instance?
Hi Susan,
If you go to http://www.americanheroquilts.com you will find under how to contact us the address, phone number and email.
No you do not need to cut the binding on the bias.
Thank you for your help and interest.

Where can I find a list of your instructions/ requirements for donating quilt tops?
Mary Alice, If you go to our website http://www.americanheroquilts.com, at the top click on “how can I help.” I think that will answer all your questions. Thank you for your interest.
