A fun idea for an easy children's quilt was shared at our semi-annual Quiltathon last Saturday. Wrap-A-Smile adviser and friend Jackie M brought 2 quilts which she made by cutting up panels and rearranging with layers of stripes. Easy peasy, and very colorful!
Our second Quiltathon was a huge success. With 13 quilters, new T-shirts designed by Colleen G's granddaughter, and plenty of homemade soups and cookies to keep us fortified, the pile of quilts grew and grew. Counting finished quilts which were delivered to us, plus our day's efforts, we ended with a glorious pile of 76 more Wrap-A-Smile quilts to ship to the medical missions. Good work everyone!

| Next step, vacuum packing. These will fit into two 20-cube boxes, with room to spare! |
