Quilting for Children
We are very excited about our quilting
for children program. Below is a sample of a few of the signature
quilts being made to help children around the world. This
is how it works… for a donation of $10 or more we will
add your name to the quilt of your choice. All donations will
be sent to benefit the programs helping these children. We
are also planning a Quilting For Children Exhibit. If you
