What an awesome group cute has. I am so glad that we were able to pull together for such a task. I know first hand how these children will cherish their quilt and other items that have been made. I was and orphan myself and lived in an orphanage, I have only 1 doll from those years before I was adopted and while growing up that doll was with me in my bed every night. Well done cuteies

Have you weighed the quilts to get an idea of how much they are going to weigh for their journey overseas? My package to you alone, for that short distance, would have cost $20 had I sent it regular mail. I can only imagine how much 80-some odd quilts are going to weigh!!

Thumbs up!
Have you thought about contacting the airline to see if they would ship it cheaper as it is for charity!

Yes Diane! I received your quilt today! Adorable! Yours is number 90! It is great and I love the fabrics you used! How fun it was putting it right on top of the stack and I did say "90" right out loud! 90 people are going to be thrilled and know that someone in this world cares! Praise the LORD and Thank You!
that someone in this big world cared enough to make a quilt just for them! Praise the Lord! Thank YOU - what a nice job you did on it too! We'll be taking photos soon! Jan

Oh Boy, another quilt arrived today from Susan sburt and it's another beautiful work of Heart! One of my friends, Linda, and I worked for hours today on completing some more of the quilts getting them all ready to go! She brought her new Brother over and I was teaching her how as we stitched. She's made 4 quilts too. Meganne, we have sure seen lots and lots of variations on your Elephant and Made with Love text designs! Lots have asked to have these added to their quilts, so we stitched lots of elephants today! God Bless YOU All! and Thank YOU Cuties!
