I just started quilting. I was looking for something to satisfy my creative spirit but realized we can only use so many quilts. After making 2 baby quilts, I was hooked. I knew I wanted to continue quilting and decided this would also be a great way to "give back". I just started making quilts to donate to a local assisted living center ... now I'm second guessing that since I read from another post here that they are disposed of once a resident passes away. Such a waste! I may check with our local Fire Dept. to see if they have a need.
There are also "world relief" programs you can checkout on-line.
