OPSEC - Navy Operations Security
Always keep Navy Operations Security in mind. In the Navy, it's essential to remember that "loose lips sink ships." OPSEC is everyone's responsibility.
DON'T post critical information including future destinations or ports of call; future operations, exercises or missions; deployment or homecoming dates.
DO be smart, use your head, always think OPSEC when using texts, email, phone, and social media, and watch this video: "Importance of Navy OPSEC."

OMG! I now understand that I was not cut out to be a teacher!!! I am having a tuff time standing by and trying to watch my daughter sew. She is doing fine, but the watching is killing me. I think if we had two machines it wouldn't not be so bad. Ok, I've had my momment of venting.

AM...Hope you have your antique quilt rolled up in that chest and not folded? One of the things that professional restorers will tell you is that these old quilts should be rolled and stored in acid free paper even if they are stored in a cedar chest. The rolling takes the stress of the steams. Just thought I'd share that bit of info that I gained from our quilt guild guest speaker:)
