Terry’s love provides comfort in Uganda

The historian (photojournalist) for the Rotaplast team which recently returned from Uganda has written a wonderful post about Wrap-A-Smile quilts, including a mention of the “T-quilts” made in honor of Terry Hodskins. 

Terry was the inspiration behind Wrap-A-Smile, believing that patients would be more  comforted by a handmade quilt than a surgical paper drape.  To date, over 28,000 WAS quilts have been shared around the world. And over 100 quilts were sewn incorporating the letter “T” in memory of Terry. The T-quilts were distributed to a variety of mission locations so it’s always a fun sighting to see them in action!

Thinking about Terry and her legacy, I would also like to reshare a tribute to Terry, posted on the Rotaplast site after her passing. https://rotaplast.org/2020/07/a-tribute-to-terry-hodskins/

The Wrap-A-Smile project

 would not continue without the ongoing generous sharing of time and talent 

of so many quilters from around the country. 

Thank you to ALL who contribute to this enduring sharing of LOVE.  

I’m sure Terry is smiling……
