Some pictures of the children I have been teaching to quilt delivering quilts to Sanford Hospital for the South Dakota Project Linus group. It really hit home to our group just what a great thing they did. 25 blankets and quilts were finished this year. My daughter was on the news talking about it. I was so proud

Kids plus counselors with the blankets and quilts

They made the goosebumps from start to almost finish. I did the binding. The blanket tying was all them. the other quilts I pieced but they sandwiched and also hand typed all of them. I did the binding since it was my sewing machines and of course my needles. LOL
