This quilt will go to an organization called Quilts of Compassion that hands quilts out to those people living through disasters and are currently still passing out quilts to tornado survivors from Oklahoma.
I chose this quilt because doing what we do at Layers of Hope - Quilting 911 it just seemed the perfect fit and I know this little quilt will find a home.
In the meantime, I have a living room full of quilts, my van is full and my grandsons room for the people of Oso, Darrington and Arlington from the landslide disaster.
I picked up well over 100 on Friday in Burien at a wonderful shop, Town Square Fabric and Yarn . This shop is brand new and the owner Cynthia and her amazing partner Christine stepped up to collect quilts for us. It was an honor to finally meet them face to face!
Paying it forward for the many blessings I have in my life just seems the right thing to do and Friday, we will be heading up to distribute these quilts to those in need as well as the first responders!
Great work in collecting the quilts for the landslide and I am sure the little boy or girl who receives the quilt in Oklahoma will love the fun animals. Bless you for all you do.
ReplyDeleteLove your child friendly quilt. It will be such a comfort to a child needing a hug. Great work you are doing for the landslide victims.
ReplyDeleteThis is so adorable. That is very nice of you to send this quilt to QOC since you are also collecting quilts for others. Keep up the awesome work of delivering to the mudslide victims.

ReplyDeleteKaren thank you so much. It is my firm belief that while I do collect quilts for others, I still should be willing to share when disasters hit. I welcome quilts year around to keep my supplies up! Thank you for the encouragement, we have donated over 350 thus far!
