Give A Kid A Quilt

http://giveakidaquilt.blogspot.com/

I stumbled upon this really awesome blog about sending in quilts to children who are going to need them this winter. Please check it out, link to the blog is☝and below ☟ is the info off their site:

WHY

The Pacific Northwest has some of the highest unemployment rates and child poverty rates in the nation. Winter is when many seasonal workers get laid off. Making the local economy in the Portland metro area worse than the nation as a whole. Because of our weather, these months of highest unemployment are also our coldest months. Compounded by the economic recession, food banks, clinics and other child welfare services have seen a dramatic upswing of children in need.

WHAT TO SEND

Any finished quilt 24" square or larger up to twin. Unbound is okay, I can machine bind.


I just can't take anymore tops right now maybe after June 2010.

WHERE TO SEND:

After March 1st 2010
