Hello Cuties, My sewing group made 50 quilts for charity for Christmas! I hope all the children love having their own. Here are the quilts and a photo of some of our group. The lady standing behind me at the door and in front of my friend Kathy I travel with, is our oldest member at 93 years! She is amazing! Don't you just love the variety?

What a big undertaking. The quilts all look beautiful and I'm sure each one will be loved by it's recipient. Each of the wonderful ladies has a beautiful and loving smile which reflects their generous souls.
I wish you all a joyous and blessed Christmas

Outstanding show of love to the children. These quilts are all beautiful. Did each have to be a certain size? What is the name of your group and the town you all represent? May God keep blessing you all as you bless others with love sharing and your gift of talents. Hugs to you!

The quilts were made for all children's ages. Not too many teen sizes, mostly adolescence or toddler age. Merry Christmas!

I have seen some wonderful needle turn applique on Mrs. Jean's quilts. She is 93 and I don't remember seeing her quilting with glasses!

What a diverse and wonderful group of quilts. Those are some lucky children, not only to have a quilt, but to be covered in love and prayers.

It is so sad that there is even a need like this ,so we hope the children realize that people do care for them and maybe not feel so alone. Perhaps the quilts will comfort them in their uncertainty.

I'm hoping they will know that this goes with them wherever they go or be placed. Something they can cling to.

Very nice quilts. Our group got so small we had to quite. I have enough of my own to fill this winter, but I miss a day out and the good lunches we have. Congratulations to your group!

I think they are too Chris. I wish I had the time to look each one over. I hadn't been to meetings since October and these were packed up right away, all I have are these pictures. I like that they are all unique.

Note to self for next year. You need to be the historian of the group and photograph each quilt, year and who made for an inspirational scrap book, especially as new members join! Truly an awesome group and group of quilts and those children will feel the blessing.

toogie by toogie 16 Dec 2019

Betsey, I had not attended a meeting since October. When I went Thursday, I got there late as I was riding with Kathy and her casserole wasn't quite finished. I had to hurry and hand sew a label on after arriving. They were actually waiting on me to finish, so we could start the picture taking and pack the quilts up. I barely got a glance at all of them so another lady sent these photos to me.
