Charity Quilts
 

Here are a few charity quilts I made and gave to a local nursing home.

Lovely quilts-----great job!!

What a wonderful thing that you do! Is there any requirement as to size, etc.???

nicely done... i'm sure they'll be appreciated

What a wonderful thing to do for our seniors. They are very lucky to have you doing this for them.

Beautiful! What a thoughtful thing to do! Approximate size?

nice work. they will be appreciated

They are each so so pretty. :)

They are beautiful, so good of you to donate them. They will be much appreciated. I need to find a place for about 30-35 quilts I have stored away. All my Family friends and some people I don't know have several of my quilts.

Nice quilts and nice for the people at the home,

Thank you for all your nice comments. I started quilting as a way to "give back" and had no idea quilting would become so addictive. Ha! I am now working on a quilt for me (a Bargello) finally.

The quilts above are probably about a small Lap size (40" x 45") so they can also be used for those in wheelchairs. I am working on a few more (to be posted later) and one is 38" x 68". I get a lot of joy doing this and hope the residents enjoy using them as much as I enjoy making them. The Manager said they can use lap & twin size and need them year round.

Jingle, check around your area. I am affiliated with a church group of quilters and there is always a need for quilts for babies, foster kids and the elderly. Also there is an organization that collects fabrics, blocks, tops or finished quilts to people who have lost their home due to a natural disaster.

Beautiful, what a great thing you did and know will be appreciated by the residents!!

they are great and will make someone happy!!!

nice quilts, great job, you'll have some happy people there.

Very pretty!

Great job! It is so nice to make donation quilts, they are so appreciated and so much love goes into them.

Jingle I know our quilt guild donates to Wounded Warriors (military men and women that have been wounded). Project Linus which gives blankets to children's hospitals. Check out local charities in and around you there is always a need for a warm blanket full of love to someone in need. If that doesn't work you can send them my way and I will make sure they get used...lol :thumbup:

All very pretty! What a kind gesture!

Thank you for what you are doing

Very nice quilts. I am sure they appreciate them.

They are lovely and will be appreciated.

Beautiful quilts - I like them all.

Terrific quilts! Bless you for your generosity! They'll be most appreciated!

Very nice...I'm sure the "oldsters" will love them.....

They are very nice and will be appreciated.

Nicely done. Love the Yellow, Pink and Turq. combination. The first quilt caught my attention as I have shoe boxes full of strips. This would be a good way to thin out my stash.

I like making charity quilts. I make them for kids and Wounded Warriors(Fort Hood army base). I've just cut out 2 more quilts.

Outstanding! I like that they aren't all feminine, but will work for men, too. How nice of you!

What a generous thing for you to do......blessing others with the quilting talent you have. I'm sure someone will feel your warmth while snuggled inside.

Sure to make some residents very happy

Lovely quilts and what a nice thing to do; I'm sure they will be greatly appreciated by the recipients.

All wonderfully made and sure to be enjoyed.

I'm certain the residents will love them and the NH will probably ask for more. You have a good heart.

Great work....Bless you for your generosity....
