Dear Julia, The two flags have arrived! They are both in excellent condition thanks to your conservation and care- and you certainly packaged them well. They look terrific! Although their value is minimal, my late father would be delighted to know his WWII flags have been cleaned and cared for - and I am grateful. Thank you for your fine work.

Hi Julia, I want to thank you wholeheartedly for all of the tremendous work that you've done for us over the past couple of years. We were extremely pleased with the treatments on all three of the most recent objects that we sent you. The tapestries hung very well and look wonderful on display and the quilt will be put into a rotation slot in the first gallery in the Bruce wing, above several beautiful chests of drawers also from Pennsylvania. And thanks so much for working within our time constraints. While we started well in advance, we are appreciative that you saw these projects through to the end when we needed them. As always, we are extremely pleased and won't hesitate to contact you for our future textile conservation needs.

Best wishes for a great New Year 2010,
Michael Belman

Dear Julia and Team, The ladies whose hands made those tiny stitches (on an 1850 chintz appliqué quilt) are dancing a jig up in heaven now! Thank you so much for bringing to life their work!

Fondly, Sallie, West Virginia, 2010
