Quilts for Kids

We received many warm, colorful and comfy quilts at the May “quilt gathering”. In fact, 52 completed quilts and 7 quilt tops were brought to the meeting. The Quilts for Kids Committee would like to thank everyone for their generosity. These wonderful quilts will put a smile on the faces of many children in our community.

In June, we will be delivering approximately 100 quilts to Inasmuch House and Safe Place. Michelle, of Safe Place, has indicated that their need for quilts will be minimally increased to include the expansion of some of their upcoming programs, such as parenting classes and to assist mothers and children who are now residing in an off-premises facility. We are able to increase our quilt donations to Safe Place because of your willingness to give of your time and talent. Thank you so much!

Also, thank you to the gals who came to our recent “cutting” day. We got most of our scraps cut into squares and strips. Within the next month or two, we will sort and bag the squares/strips and bring them to guild in hopes that many of you will turn them into patchwork quilts for our kids.

We thank all guild members for their continued support of our “Quilts for Kids” project. Have a good summer.
