Community Quilts from Beth

You might remember that I cleaned out all of the quilt tops that were here and sent them out to a new bunch of quilt finishers.   It’s always an “odd” time for me as I trust the tops will get to the recipients but I never know if I’ll get back finished pictures from the people I sent them to.   I think everyone who volunteers means well but life happens.   There have been a few people I didn’t hear from people again.   I think that has only happened twice and sadly, I had sent out lots of quilts that were made by Marion to one person.   It made me really sad not to see pictures of the quilts come back.

I learned from that and now only send out a few at a time in the first shipment in case the people don’t follow the rules and send pictures of the finished quilts back to me.

As some of the finished quilts come in from new finishers, my heart is so happy.   I trusted and didn’t get burnt.   That’s always and amazing feeling.

Beth is the new finisher…

“Attached are pictures of four finished quilt tops.    They were all super cute and I had a good time figuring out what I wanted to do with them.   The quilts then traveled with us back to Missouri, where my Mom lives.   She did the binding on all four, so this was quite the team effort.   These were all taken to a Project Linus drop-off here in Mo.,
