Quilts for Cops
We had our first kit making day at the end of July...Kayla received boxes and boxes of fabric from WSQ but she wasn't sure what to do with it all...it was a bit overwhelming! So several ladies spent the day picking out patterns and putting together kits. If you would like a kit...just give the shop a call or send a facebook message to Kayla and we will have one ready for you. These quilts go to first responders who are injured in the line of duty. Police officers, paramedics, fire fighters...
all deserve the love and healing that a handmade quilt brings.
