Troop #654 Freedom Quilts - Need Old Blue Jeans
Tuesday, February 6, 2007 -
Troop #654
Help Brownie Troop 654 Create Four Freedoms Quilts
The Four Freedom Gratitude Quilts are given to injured
service members to show the love and respect that we have for our troops.
Made of denim squares cut from jeans, these squares are signed by groups
and individuals and include messages of support.
These denim quilts were inspired by Franklin D. Roosevelt’s address to the
77th Congress on January 6, 1941 -
The Four Freedoms.
* Freedom of Speech and Expression *
* Freedom of Worship *
* Freedom from Want *
* Freedom from Fear *
We will be collecting old jeans at the
February, March & April Vista Meetings
Please contact Stefanie K with any questions.
