Quilts for Lives Cut Short
The Uvulati, our monthly hand-sewing group, met last night at Bonnie's house and held the ingathering for our summer's labors, wherein each member committed to making one (or more) baby's or child's quilt for the local hospice. Not everyone was present, and one member forgot to bring her quilt. Nonetheless, it was a fine harvest.

Two of these quilts were from a block swap we did from "ugly Australian fabric"; no one seemed to have the courage to try to put the finished blocks into one quilt. Honna brilliantly make them into baby quilts.

I think some of mine are much smaller than the ones pictured - I though they were to go over incubators? I don't doubt that each quilt will find itself a home somewhere.
Lovely also to see pictures of Bonnie's drawing room - I have spent many happy hours there!

Sadly, I'm guessing this is an ongoing project?
What size quilts are needed?
