Project Linus donation!
We've boxed up more of the quilts and quilt tops we've sewn for photo samples here in the office. This batch didn't fit the size requirements for Quilts of Valor, but they were perfect for Project Linus!
For those of you who aren't familiar with Project Linus (and I know many of you generous quilters out there know Project Linus well!!), it's an organization that provides security blankets to children and teens who are sick, traumatized, or in need. According to their web site they have distributed over three million blankets to children in need since 1995! WOW!
Diana, a volunteer for a local chapter of Project Linus here in Vancouver, WA, was kind enough to drop by our office and pick up 4 boxes of quilts and quilt tops that will go to kids in need. Thanks Diana!!!!
