Can't afford to send money but can donate a quilt. it's hard to comprehend the suffering and pain those people are going thru. My heart hurts for them.<br /><br />Maggiemageezhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12015876977228705537noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8039618084602059826.post-87284599721577348562011-03-15T15:27:04.174-07:002011-03-15T15:27:04.174-07:00I understand completely about having to make a qui...I understand completely about having to make a quilt...it heals all the way around, you, me, all those that handle it along the way and the recipient.

It's important to work on those causes we feel drawn to.Mary Johnsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07801947879882584734noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8039618084602059826.post-57296527548623394412011-03-15T10:48:58.547-07:002011-03-15T10:48:58.547-07:00I have several children who have been on the recei...I have several children who have been on the receiving end of project linus and other quilt charities for children's hospitals and those sweet hand made quilts do make a difference. Its not like the hospitals (or red cross) don't have blankets, or that I cant afford a blanket for my child but that they received a GIFT and a warm and pretty gift just for them during a traumatic time.<br />(happens to be functional too)<br />Years after my kiddos surgeries the blanket/quilts they recieved from the hospital are still their prized posesssions. The quilt brought great emotional comfort to them when they were sccared and in pain. They could feel the love put into them. And this momma greatly appreciates the love and time from a stranger for my child.<br /><br />My chldren and I will be making and sending quilts/blankies.Jhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10982655654683102020noreply@blogger.com
