Ten Fabulous Arrivals.
We're gathering quilts for the flood quilt drive as well as providing quilts for the organisations we normally support so all quilts are welcome for donation. We've had requests for more quilts from a palliative care provider and it's lovely to hear that our quilts are welcomed and much appreciated.
These fabulous quilts will be distributed to our flood quilt drive, palliative care patients, and children in foster care.
Many thanks for your generous support ladies.
Hugs, Jan Mac xx
