9/11

I think I will always remember the weeks after 9/11 at the quilt shop and the quilted flag frenzy.  We made the Quilt In a Day flag......   I think we must have offered that class at least 10 times in the weeks following 9/11. I remember having quilters come, but also having people who never quilted before.  They wanted to do something, so they came to us to learn how.  I wonder how many people still have their quilted flag.
I've made it several times since then, it always makes me smile when I remember when we were teaching people to make it for themselves.
Funny how we remember historic events with what we made at the time.
Does anyone have one of these flags?  I'd love to see pictures.
