Hi quilting friends,
SURPRISE! We will meet on Monday, December 19, 2022, in the workroom at KMVT. This will really be the final meeting of 2022. If you can make it, we will see you then, but we know many folks are very busy with holiday preparations.
We received the Riley Blake fabric from the Carter family who operate Charity Anywhere. There were 18 full bolts. It’s lovely fabric that will add to our collection beautifully. We thank the Carter family for their continuing support of Community Quilts throughout our years of operation.
Susan Stallings received “an amazing phone call from Amanda at Health and Welfare (Family Services.)” She said that Amanda called “to say Thank You to all of the wonderful volunteers who provide quilts to Health and Welfare. Amanda said she keeps special quilts for the little ones as she works with 30 children under two.” She likes the soft ones as they seem to comfort them so much. The older children love the quilted ones. She has over 50 children. She also mentioned the burp cloths were so helpful for use with the babies. Susan said, “I wish you all could have heard her go on about how the quilts help to quiet and calm the children. Know that what you are all doing is so worthwhile, Take care. I miss you all, Susan.”
Susan also wrote to say she was thrilled with the quilt we all signed blocks for, and that she appreciated our thoughtfulness. She misses us, but is loving having family closer to enjoy more frequently than she had been able to do in the past. Carolyn is to be thanked for making this wonderful tribute possible.

136 Laundry Bags
