Our goal is to produce 100 Padded Hangers for the St. Louis Soldiers Memorial Museum. The hangers are needed to store the hundreds of military uniforms in their care. Help us preserve this history and honor our Veterans!

READY........SET........SEW!!!!!!

Hi All!
Tomorrow, October 15 is the big day! We will sew 90 padded hangers for the Soldiers Memorial. I already made 10....5 of them are in the Museum display.  I'm excited! I'm tired too, but it's been so worth it! I would do it again in a heartbeat! I did the final prep on 67 covers last night. (that's 134 pieces!) Whew!

We start sewing at 1:00 pm tomorrow and the presentation by the Soldiers Memorial begins at 2:00pm. Don't miss it!

Yesterday, as I was leaving work, I was lucky enough to witness the Tribute Wall arriving in Arnold. It was something to see! I've never seen so many motorcycles (escorts) in one place. The procession was absolutely awesome. What an honor for me to get to see that! I will be visiting the Tribute Wall with my family in the next couple of days. I wouldn't miss it.

Watch for posts about the results of the sewing marathon! 

Regards,
Angie
