The Cotton Patch Quilters of Kern quilt guild (Bakersfield, CA) do the turtle pillows as one of our regular activities. The ladies love doing the cute turtles. We have one of the Painted Turtle Camps not far from us (about 70 miles maybe), and some of the ladies visit there every year to deliver the pillows. It's a wonderful thing they do for the kids, and the kids love the pillows.
