    On Saturday I plan to hand 8 quilts over to our local QFK Area Coordinator. I finished 6 of them today. One I made a couple weeks ago when I made 5 but only 4 fit in the box to QFK in PA. Two of these are from kits I got from Genneah, our coordinator. The rest are from my stash. One of them was put together by a dear friend that I put together kits from my stash for her to make. There was a call out for quilts for teen boys so that's what most of them are. Though the Teal and purple ones are maybe better for teen girls.

    All together

    Eight kids are definitely going to be very blessed, as are you. What a wonderful act of kindness.
