There will be an awareness event at the Lincoln Memorial (Saturday) from 11 to 1, and the quilts will be displayed there at the Lincoln Memorial at that time.

I think the memorial will always be seen in that beautiful relationship to the two monuments. When you enter it, with the Lincoln Memorial at your back, you travel down into the depths, and this black wall looms over you. Then you turn, and there before you is this obelisk pointing to the sun. That relationship will never die. People will always feel something wonderful and uplifting about that.

It's been really interesting for me ... to share in the experience with someone who is seeing the quilt for the first time. Just how surprised they are by the number of quilts and also by the detail and the love that people put into each quilt. Each time I see someone who's never seen it, who's seeing it for the first time, moves me.

It is just a great day to bring out your quilts and lawn chairs and spend the day. We want everyone to come out and have a really good time. Hopefully, people will have a good time and learn something.
