This quilt was donated by Lynn R, and sent to a 911 operator who has recently had a stroke. What a blessing this will be to help keep her warm and let her know others are thinking of her.
Did I tell you Lynn also said she would donate another quilt on Monday? That will catch us up for 2013 with the exception of the few I am adding finishing touches to.
Lynn told me she came to us the long way around, she had read or heard about it from someone over at another site and came to visit and ask if we could use her help.
This is how we get our quilts, when someone see's our Pinterest post and pictures or see's our button on another blog, hears about us from another quilter and passes the information on and that is why we blessed so many people in 2013.
If you can't quilt or sew, crochet or knit and can't afford to help us, that is okay, because if you are reading this and you have a blog, grab our button, add it to your blog, let others know about us from your blogging friends, to local quilt shops, quilt guilds, yarn shops, etc.
GET THE WORD OUT for us because I am only one person and can only reach so many people per day, but all of you know someone that I don't know, so please reach out to them and also if you would be willing to help us in the future, please let me know so I can add you to our growing Rolodex list of helpers!
I found your site via a post made by "North Hills Quilter". I am very curious if you all accept finished quilt tops that have not yet been quilted (since I do not have a long arm, or free motion foot). If so, do they go on to someone else that finishes them? How does that work? Or, have you ever done anything like that before? You all do wonderful work and I can really appreciate it since my husband is a 911 dispatcher in Arkansas. :)
ReplyDeletePickles I do accept finished tops and backs. I finish them myself at this time using a walking foot.
