Exciting news from the Wynndale quilting group in Terry, MS. Yesterday, they got together a Wynndale Baptist Church and put together 20 quilts. Lightning fast! We are so grateful for the kindness of this group to rally to help us meet our initative to make 250 quilts by the Spring. Not only did they complete 20 quilts but they have requested two more boxes of 20 in each. Many will be working on these at home as well as working in groups at the quilting meeting. Below are some pictures of these kind ladies working away. Thank you Wynndale Quilters!

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.

Allie, Caitlin and Brylee
We just got a great letter from Marie Crook, who had triplet girls this past July. After a long stay in the NICU, the three girls are home with their family.
"I would love to say thank you for these amazing quilts and I use them everyday. They are absolutly beautiful and will be given to them for when they become older. Thank you for being so thoughtful. Love the Crook Family"
Look at these adorable girls.

Also, thank you to Kellie Toothman who is back in touch with Wrap Them in Roses after sewing quilts for Keira in the past. Thank you for re-engaging with us - your 10 kits should arrive today!
I put together 15 kits in the process and mailed off 10, meaning I've got 5 ready for someone's TLC. Whose ready?
