    Nice article Kathy. I guess I didn't realize these guys all hand pieced as well as hand quilted. You are an amazing woman!

    What a fantastic mission.

    Enjoy & thanks for taking the time to look.
    I applaud Katherine Mills for taking the time to teach inmates at the Lea County Correctional Facility in Hobbs, New Mexico. :thumbup:

    (You)/she deserves an award for the great work in which you are doing. Good for you. I am pleased to see that the quilts are being given to charities. I send good wishes to you and the men and just wish that I could do something like that where I live. I think that I am going to look into doing something like this!

    That's great that the men can give back to the community & they look like they're enjoying the work.
