Quilt Express Flight!

Pilot Pat and co-pilot Paige with our 66 treasured “passengers!” I don’t know about you but my spouse DREADS going to the fabric store with me!  He loves the work I do for Wrap-A-Smile but he isn’t particularly interested in my quilt patterns, my geometry piecing dilemmas or those agonizing, endless color choices.  However, he does love to fly airplanes.  I had an idea that would appeal to both of us and this past Monday we were able to make it a reality! Polly and her granddaughter with 44 quilts ready to go! Aerial view of Maine from the Quilt Express 1 On June 20, we took the inaugural flight of the Quilt Express and picked up 66 quilts from two separate airfields in Maine!  Polly, from Unity, had 44 gorgeous creations ready to go and Colleen and Marty from Boothbay Harbor contributed and collected the remaining 22 lovely quilts from Boothbay Harbor, New York and Massachussetts.  I am thrilled because my supply of quilts was down to zero.  All 66 quilts will be given to Comfort Case
