Linda Vester just referenced a quilt made by a soldier in Iraq (started in April 2004) and it's being auctioned on Ebay, closing in 21 hours. ALL proceeds go to scholarship fund for children and grandchildren of fallen soldiers. I found it on Ebay and thought that I'd pass along the link in case anyone wishes to bid on it.

Wow - 21 hours to go and latest bid is 2001.00 - that's great but it should go a lot higher now that Linda advertised it.
I think you're right. It was at $1100 when I typed the first post and now it's at almost $3000. I hope it does well.
I'm sure it will - lots of patriotic people out there willing to help any way they can!!
