I loved seeing all those tough guys with tatoos working on their quilts. What a great program. Saw another article about quilters in prison where they were only allowed to cut with children's craft scissors. These guys must be well screened to allow them to work with rotary cutters and such. I'd like more information on this. How did the program get started? Any follow up on prisoners who have been released - how they're doing?

Here is the link to my post about the program. This is how the editors of Quilter's Home found out about us!

How awesome! I am very impressed with the program and with the work produced! You must have bren blessed in a special way to be able to do this work and you, in turn, are a blessing for these men. It would be wonderful to see a program like this expanded to many other situations all over the nation.
Thank you so much for sharing!
