I agree. Sadly, it must be total chaos right now and so many are displaced and would be unable to really take care of a quilt. Let's just remember all of them in our prayers and perhaps later they will welcome our quilts.

our generous gifts of quilts would be difficult for them to receive and distribute right now.
i would recommend that all who want to make a comfort quilt for eventual donation to a Japanese charity go ahead and work on them, but please don't plan to send them for at least a few months.
