    Default My Snuggle quilts for sick children ready for delivery

    Hi everyone
    Every year I make Snuggle (don't like the word charity) quilts that go to the Children's ward at our big hospital.
    Yesterday I delivered 10 large quilts to the group that co-ordinates the delivery and also 12 small 28inch quilts for mothers that miscarry after 26 weeks. Sorry I didn't take any photos of the small ones.

    My DD made the butterfly quilt and also the cat quilt.

    The ABC quilts will be presented to the first born on Christmas Day and New Years Day.

    The last 6 quilts are going to another group that are involved in the new childrens ward that has been set up for children about to have surgery. I also made 7 little doll quilts, as the hospital uses dolls to explain to the children what is going to be happening to them and they wrap these dolls in little quilts.

    My DD made the cupcake quilt and also the zig zag quilt for me and we both worked on the Sesame Street quilt .

    There are a lot of photos so please be patient
    Thank you for looking

    Mirabelle, your quilting just amazes me! You are such a wonderful, giving person, to make all these "Snuggle Quilts" for such great causes. I admire your sewing skills so much! Hugs to you, dear friend!
