The hospital in Marshfield Wisconsin has a "Comfort Cart" that goes in the room with a very ill or dying person. It contains coffee, tea, snacks, etc. and a comfort quilt. The family is welcome to anything on the cart while they stay with their loved one. The quilt can be taken home with them after the crisis is resolved one way or the other.
The hospital asked that the quilts be about 40 X 60. Our quilt club had 14 of these on display at our quilt show, and we are still making more. This was my "project" for the year I am president.
Not all of the quilts are going to the hospital. Some are going to people our members know who they think will benefit from and appreciate them.
