Re: quilting for a charity
Carole,
I have read about this is our local paper. This is a wonderful thing you are doing.
Our minds must be working together, i just bought fabric to make a quilt for a local 3 y/o that is in Children's. She is getting chemo for a neuroblastoma. I too, thought that it would be too sad to quilt but I'm finding that it isn't. Just got the fabric washed and may do a log cabin since it's fast. I need to get this to her family right away.
Hopefully, your organization will not need your blankets. Ya know what I mean?
((Hugs))
Sharon

Sharon, does Childrens' Hospital need quilts? That would be a fun thing to do, too...

Carole,
I don't know about Childrens Hospital. I did have that on my mind to make premie blankets also. I know the guidelines are different & they are smaller.
I was also going to check with our local Women's Resouce Center for abused women & children & see if they could use quilts.
Let me know how it goes.
(((Hugs)))

Re: quilting for a charity
Sharon, darling, we are definitely on the same track with regard to charities...I was thinking of the Womens Resource Center as well, just a couple days ago!

If you investigate this organization and find they will accept quilts, would you let me know? I would love to offer them some as well.

Re: quilting for a charity
Ladies....let's see some quilts! LOL
No *real* hurry as patience is a virtue and all that. I just know I'll be inspired by what you've done and what you're willing to give of yourselves.

Re: quilting for a charity
I have finished 3 small quilts for the Garden of Innocence; have two more in progress. Sadly, there is a service for a baby girl tomorrow. I am working, otherwise I would go.
