How sweet of you! I'm sure they were greatly appreciated. Often DV survivors have to sneak out of their homes & get to bring little to nothing with them, so anything at all is appreciated but a beautiful, warm baby quilt that will last for years would definitely be a special treat!
And I echo what Tessagin wrote about the women there also loving to learn a skill in sewing and/or quilting. It can be both practical & therapeutic. I hope within the next year to start working with women & children at my local Rape Crisis Center. One of my favorite artists is a painter named Claudia Bernardi; she has worked with war survivors throughout Latin America to paint murals of remembrance & murals of hope. How beautiful it would be to translate that into fabrics -- giving people a voice and the opportunity to learn a practical skill at the same time.
Sharing our craft in any form is a wonderful thing to do.
