Helping Children Make A Quilt Full Of Memories. . .

 

One of the community projects of the New Braunfels Area Quilt Guild involves working with Hope Hospice to create a Children's Memory Quilt each year.  The children's Crayon drawings, depicting a memory of their loved one, are made into quilt blocks by guild volunteers.  They are then assembled into a beautiful Memory Quilt.  

This year the Hope Hospice Children's Grief Quilt was dedicated at a picnic and balloon release on May 23, 2011.  NBAQG quilters who worked on this  project are: Mary Salmon (chair, pictured on the right), Sandy Jackson (pictured on the left), and not pictured are Sandy Rich, Kerry  Nicholson, Jacqui Kirk and Wilma Hurt.
