    Default Aegean Sea

    I love how this quilt turned out. It is a twin size quilt. I made this quilt for a foster program for teenagers who will be soon released from foster care. These teenagers don't have much to their name and need all the help they can get. I hope this finds a good home and will be much loved. https://drive.google.com/file/d/14mk...ew?usp=sharing

    Such a great place to donate. Someone will really love this quilt. I can see why it's named Aegean Sea; it really matches that name. Just wonderful!

    That is a lovely quilt. Have you worked with the foster program a while? Are you able to find out what the young adults like before you make the quilt for them?

    Very pretty quilt. The kids should love it. I also make quilts for foster kids in my county. I make whatever I like and I assume the foster Mother picks them out for her kids.

    Thank you, I was at one time a foster parent. So I know what these teenagers go thru. They can be pulled out of a home and placed somewhere else at a moments notice. Quilts Beyond Borders supplies quilts to Comfort Cases, it is a program that supplies a back pack, quilt, change of clothes and personal items. This then belongs to the foster child. As far as any information on what they like, I just go with my gut instinct and try to stick to colors and design that are not gender specific. i think this quilt will work for a girl or boy.

    Stunning!I hope it goes to a boy because boys seem so overlooked. Who ever gets that quilt will know it was made with love & care!
    My heart is warmed that you do this!
