Off They Go!

All of the quilt groups to which I belong make donation quilts, but one group (only 4 members) recently met and sent the following donations on their way.

Twelve quilts for Flying Horse Farm

24 quilts for Ronald McDonald House

Here are individual pictures of a few of them

We’ve heard comments like, “Wow! That robot quilt took so much time, and you’re GIVING IT AWAY?” We believe that donation quilts should be as pretty and well made as quilts we keep for ourselves.

Some of us make quilts because we learn something new with each quilt, or because we enjoy playing with beautiful fabric. We get satisfaction out of it, and the group member who delivers the quilts says the staff at our designated charities is always appreciative. Also, quilting keeps us sane! Just sayin’.

  1. Indeed, the quilts you-all have made are so pretty. Every one made to each maker’s exacting requirements. I never ceased to be amazed at the generosity of quilters – like you, and others – who tirelessly make and donate. It’s truly mind-boggling. You make all us quilters look good… and thank you for that! What a great bunch of people you hang out with!

    I believe this also! I wish this didn’t have to be said! 🙂
