Kidz Place Quilts

In November we delivered some of the charity quilts we’ve been working on for Kidz Place, a daycare center for medically fragile children.

The faces are blurred for privacy, but take our word for it, there were some big smiles!  So much fun to see the quilts loved by little hands!
