THIRTY quilts off to JAPAN!


Imagine losing so much and then receiving a hand made quilt from across the ocean from someone you have never met!

On April 26th, Daniela and Susan of Quilts for Quake Survivors sent off their quilts to be given to survivors in Japan. It was a collective effort and they thank everyone who cut, pieced, sashed, quilted, bound, sent fabric, sent strips and even whole quilt tops with all the ingredients!

Check out some of the amazing creations at:
