Many thanks to these lovely ladies who spent their Saturday morning preparing quilt kits.

Keira also just heard from the Blair Batson Children's Hospital in Jackson, MS. They are interested in us supplying their unit with quilts for all babies weighing under 1500 grams or 3 pounds.  Keira is discussing a lot of support options with them and we have a goal to deliver 250 quilts over the next several months. So, we need your help to help achieve this goal of delivering the 250 quilts. I will be reaching out to various quilting groups to see if you can participate. If you are reading this and are interested, please get in touch and I will rally quickly to deliver to you as many kits as you can take. We are really eager to provide this NICU with the quilts for these tiny babies. Thanks again volunteers, let's make this happen!

Thank you to Mary Jane Handy and her daughter Concetta who are back in action making quilts. I just found out that they have 18 complete and 18 more coming in February! Thanks to these amazing quilt makers who have volunteered their time to put together such a large batch. Each quilt is treasured by the families who receive them - a small gift they are given while going through a challenging time.
