News on the web about the much awaited Patchwork Heritage Collection is heating up. Inspired by President Obama's January 20, 2009 Inaugural speech, the Patchwork Heritage Project is one which is designed to bring our fellow Americans together to help those in need. With the help of Gifts in Kind, the Blanket America charity project is one which will provide up to 1,000,000 needy Americans with warm blankets throughout the year ahead.
The Patchwork Heritage Quilt is a unique and stylish addition to your home. Muted green, cream, maroon and browns are complimented beautifully by the blues, reds and pinks in the 13 different fabrics which make up the quilt patches. Appropriately, the 13 fabrics represent the 13 original colonies which began this great nation. Because of this amalgam of color and texture, the Patchwork Heritage Quilt matches nearly any color scheme.
On the reverse of the quilt, the Presidential Inaugural Speech is printed in entirety. Especially appropriate is this section of the speech, "For we know that our patchwork heritage is a strength, not a weakness. We are a nation of Christians and Muslims, Jews and Hindus, and non-believers. We are shaped by every language and culture, drawn from every end of this Earth." These unforgettably powerful words of wisdom are set on a background featuring our lady liberty.
The Patchwork Heritage Quilt is retailing for the reasonable prices. The throw size, which measures 60 x 70", is $59.99. The full/queen size is $79.99 and measures 90x90". The king size, which measures 140x90", is priced at $99.99.
