Children need to feel secure. When there are natural disasters or other traumatic events that occur in a child's life, it helps him to have an anchor to hold on to. This blog is an effort to collect new, handmade, child-sized and baby-sized charity quilts to distribute to displaced or traumatized children of Tuscaloosa County and Jefferson County, Alabama.

    Great! Thank You. I do not have much of a stash, but I have some fabric left from the pinwheel quilt. Please note that my internet access is down. I have to log on on w-fi hotspots, etc. I will e-mail you with my phone number before I go home.

    Count me in for a baby quilt. Will check back for follow-up (mailing) information.
    My heart pours.

    I am going to share this on my blog and I want to contribute. It will take a litle time to make a baby quilt, but I know the need is great. My heart breaks thinking of the loss.
    ~do you have a facebook page? That might help spread the word.

    I will set up a facebook page as soon as possible. I have limited Internet access due to the EF3 that went over my house in the early morning storms. Have power, just no Internet. I have to hop on wi-fi hot spots whenever I can.

    I quilt and would love to help. Do you want these in lap size? Also is there a date that you need these by?

    Whenever you can get them here is great. I do not have any charity quilts or UFO's around, so I am starting from scratch too. Lap size would be fine. They need to be large enough to cover a child, but small enough for them to handle for comfort. Thank you for your help.
