Donating Quilts To Others Shows You Care
I’ve said it before: quilters are the most generous, kind people I’ve ever come across. If you quilt and want to help others, you don’t have to be a member of a guild, an award winner, or a joiner by nature. There are many organizations out there that will be grateful for your efforts, and thrilled that you want to help them help others.
Share the Gift of a Quilt With Someone in Need.
The links below are a good place to start. Let me know how it goes, or if you have a worthy charity that you want others to know about. One quilt won’t save the world, but the example of the AIDS quilt shows us that working together, our stitches can make a difference.
Make a quilt for someone who needs a helping hand, some love, or some reinforcement that the world is still a good place to live in.
