The quilt pictured was designed and created by Michele Hoffman, a Vietnam-era veteran and PUFL Legionnaire. The custom quilt is 80X116. The cost of materials was $545, and 50 hours of labor. Hoffman was able to raise the funds to cover all the costs. The label on the back of the quilt shows all the financial, photo and support donors.
This quilt was made for the National Vietnam War Museum in Mineral Wells, Texas. The naming rights will be auctioned off at the annual spring fundraiser in Dallas on April 1; the quilt will then remain at the museum.
