Valentine quilt for nursing home
3 Attachment(s)
The River Valley Stitchers made paper pieced blocks. Anne put it together dealing with all the problems of a group project. And I quilted it. It will hang for February at a local nursing home. We are in the process of making one to hang each month so that the environment can be changed. They have been so well received. I have been actually hanging two a month. I was hanging one and a resident came in and said no, hang it on the other wall where I see it while I am eating. I assured her I had another one for that wall too.

It's a beautiful quilt and a worthwhile project!

Oh it's so very pretty. I know you all have given so much joy to the residents. You should be proud. The quilting is exquisite!
|
What greater compliment and expression of appreciation but to be asked to move it so she could see it while eating!

Beautiful Deb! What a sweet thing to do, and the quilting on the hearts looks great.
|
Beautiful. I know the residents will love to look at it.

What a sweet quilt and I just love that it is going to be hanging for many lovely seniors to be able to enjoy. Good on you all for your efforts.
I had to go to the DMV recently and it took 3 1/2 hours to wait my turn. I was happily walking around the departments for on the walls were fabulous quilts hanging around the entire building. What a treat to have a quilt show there for me to enjoy while I was bored silly. I didn't even know they were there! |
its beautoful and beautiful quilting!!!
|
OOh! I love this quilt. And the back is just as beautiful. I have a 91yr. old Sister in the nursing Home. They play bingo in the dining room in the afternoon. I'm making lap quilts for their prizes. I'm kind of slow tho'. I didn't mean to interrupt your thread.
|
What a wonderful gift to the residents and staff! It is truly art!
|
Beautiful quilt. I am sure it will be thoroughly enjoyed. What a wonderful idea to have one for for every month.

Wonderful quilt. Love your plan to have a change every month. I'm sure it will be wonderful for the residents too.

So pretty. I showed my hubby and told him about your groups project. He travels to nursing homes and cares for the residents. He thought it was a great thing y'all were doing. I bet the sweet woman who wants to look at your quilt while she eats day dreams of her Quilty years gone by.
