i love to piece quilts; i love to gift quilts for donation! (after all, there are only so many quilts that one family, one person, one sofa, one rocking chair can use, right?)
about 7+ (?) years ago, i was the quilting teacher for our local Ben Franklin store, teaching 8-12 quilting classes a year. after awhile, that petered out, but i still have the quilt samples i made to advertise and teach the classes.
i never came up with a home for many of the quilts; i just wasn't sure what to do with them... they're all pretty small (no bigger than 36"- 42" square) and it's an eclectic bunch.
although every one of them is brand new, never used, some have been lonely and forlorn for quite a long time. (yikes! i didn't realize it was SOOOO long until i looked back through my blog!)
after looking through the suggested donation list that Mari provided, i figured Little Lambs Foundation was the best choice for these smaller quilts.
i know these are not your typical baby quilt, but I'm hoping that they'll bring some family and the baby some comfort, knowing that someone cares...

Way to put those quilt samples to work, Jennifer!!
They will be perfect for new babies and their mothers. Surely they will be loved. Thanks for sharing.
Perfect way to finish up and donate those samples!
