How neat that you were able to spot them at work on the website. I find it really interesting how the quilts are actually used--not only to cover patients for comfort, but to support them. You are grateful for the photographer, but the whole quilt community is grateful for your never-flagging response to the need for quilts everywhere.JanineMariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13475847392355523001noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6996371959062263667.post-7240828247221755572019-12-03T10:55:01.040-05:002019-12-03T10:55:01.040-05:00Well THIS is what adds so very much-needed love an...Well THIS is what adds so very much-needed love and positivity to our hurting, angry world. I am so happy you got these photos, and that you shared them because of all the quilts I've donated (not anywhere near the myriad you have) I've never seen any post-donation photos, wait, just one of my friends' grandson L's quilt after his home burned down last year. I clicked on the doctor photo and I'm off to investigate Rotaplast. Thank you also for thanking the volunteers who GET the quilts TO the places they're needed. :-) Another often unacknowledged part of the process.Sandra Walkerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17737049269550479188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6996371959062263667.post-88287222978639395522019-12-02T22:51:59.443-05:002019-12-02T22:51:59.443-05:00Oh Louise how wonderful to be able to see some of ...Oh Louise how wonderful to be able to see some of your quilts giving such comfort to children having surgery, this can be such a frightening time for them.

Most of the time when we donate quilts, we have no idea of their final destination.
