🧡 500 CHILDREN • 500 QUILTS 🧡
🎉 COUNT UP — WE'RE AT 80 COMPLETED QUILTS! 🎉
It's been a hot minute since we've shared an update on our journey toward 500 quilts... but don't let our silence fool you! Behind the scenes, our volunteers and quilters have been BUSY, BUSY, BUSY! 🧵❤️
💕 Here's where we are TODAY!
🧡 80 COMPLETED QUILTS!
🪡 6 quilts ready for their final stage — binding!
💜 3 quilts with volunteers working their binding magic.
🧵 4 quilts in the queue for longarm quilting.
💛 4 quilts with volunteer longarm quilters.
And that's just the beginning of the story...
❤️ BEHIND THESE CABINET DOORS...
HUNDREDS of lovingly created quilt tops are waiting for their turn!
Each represents hours of cutting, sewing, creativity, and generosity from quilters who believe every child deserves to feel loved.
But a quilt top is only part of the journey. Each still needs backing, batting, longarm quilting, and binding before becoming a finished quilt ready to wrap a Southern Oregon child in comfort, love & hope.
The love is already stitched into these quilt tops. Now we need helping hands to finish the hugs! ❤️
✨ AND THE EXCITEMENT CONTINUES TOMORROW!
At Saturday's Quilting 4 Kidz Sewcial — our Panel Workshop — volunteers will be putting finishing touches on quilts through binding, while other helping hands bring beautiful quilt panels one step closer to becoming quilts for children in our community.
🧡 THIS IS THE HEART OF QUILTS 4 KIDZ!
One person creates a quilt top. Another prepares the backing. Someone adds the longarm quilting. Another finishes the binding.
Different hands. Different talents. One shared HEART.
🎉 80 completed. 420 to go. And hundreds of quilts filled with possibilities!
To every quilter, volunteer, donor, and supporter who makes this journey possible — THANK YOU!
Together, we're wrapping Southern Oregon children in comfort, love & hope, one quilt at a time. 🧡
Want to help us finish the hugs? We'd love to have you join our quilting family!
