    our natural and immediate instinct as quilters is to head for the workroom in a time like this.

    somebody very sensibly pointed out in another post, though, that Japan is more desperately in need of money for food, clean water, temporary shelters, care for the sick and injured, and for reconstruction.

    our generous gifts of quilts would be difficult for them to receive and distribute right now.

    i would recommend that all who want to make a comfort quilt for eventual donation to a Japanese charity go ahead and work on them, but please don't plan to send them for at least a few months.
