Charity Quilts

Hi Friends -

The only sewing I've done this week is on charity quilts! I thought I'd post the flyer for our group so you could read it:

HIS HANDS QUILT GROUP

What is His Hands Quilt Group? It is a group of ladies from different area churches who sew quilts for the Harvest Home Rehabilitation Program graduates (The Harvest Home is part of the Haven of Rest Ministries in Akron, Ohio). Each woman who completes the Rehabilitation Program will be able to choose a quilt as a reminder of God’s love for her as she begins her new life.

His Hands Quilt Group is in need of the following donations:

-100% cotton fabric or 100% flannel fabric
-cotton batting
-backing fabric (large pieces or yardage of fabric

Each of us works on a quilt(s) at home and then once a month we meet to help each other finish up whatever needs to be done - tying, labels, etc. We bring a sack lunch and take turns bringing a dessert. One criteria though - it has to be a ooey gooey and of course, no calories :) It is very rewarding and I'd be happy to share more with anyone who is interested!
Happy Quilting!
