fleurdelisquilts

A friend began making small quilts (about the size of a place mat) to donate to a nursing home for AD patients. Having something to keep their hands busy seems to help keep them calm. I've made several of these little quilts using scraps or left-over blocks to donate to the nursing home where my mom was before her death from AD and cancer. To make the quilts more interesting, I've added loops of ribbon, lace, a sewn-in key, sewn-in beads and other found objects. I try to make sure that all hard or small objects are sewn into the quilt so that they don't come loose or harm frail fingers. I really wish I had known about this before my mom passed. She would have loved one!
