The Quilts For Kids originated in Pennsylvania, you can find out more about them and contact them for a kit. They send you the fabric, you provide the batting, put it all together & send back to them. Their website is: http://www.quiltsforkids.org
But, you may already know this.
At an LQS here, we can pick up the kits for the tops, return them to the LQS and they are distributed here. They go together pretty quick.
Thanks again! :thumbup:

Thank you to all of you! :thumbup:
If you want to do a little project that doesn't take very long, check out http://www.quiltsforkids.org and request a kit.
They welcome all skill levels, thank goodness, because I have only seriously started to learn quilting this past April. I've been sewing clothes, etc. forever.
I've learned a lot from this board! Thank you to all of you for so willingly sharing your expertise!
