Quilts for Kids

Wednesday afternoons, 12:30PM - 4:30PM

Quilter's Corner is proud to join forces with Quilts for Kids, Inc., an international organization dedicated providing quilts to children suffering from serious illnesses or abuse while saving perfectly good, yet "unwanted," fabric from landfills.  Quilts for Kids, Inc., a charitable organization founded in 2000 by Linda Arye of Yardley, PA, has made and distributed (with the help and dedication of many volunteers) tens of thousands of quilts worldwide; the organization has also re-purposed many millions of pounds of fabric, saving it from landfills.

Quilter's Corner now hosts weekly sewing sessions (Wednesdays, 12:30PM - 4:30PM) specifically for volunteers willing to dedicate time supporting this worthy cause.  Quilts for Kids, Inc., provides us with kits containing a pattern and the fabric to construct either a 36”-square NICU quilt or an approximately 38” x 45” crib/lap quilt.  You are also welcome to bring 100% cotton brightly-colored kid-friendly fabric from your stash!

Volunteers are asked to provide low-loft batting **, machine piece, and machine quilt (no monofilament thread, please) their quilts.  (Perfection is NOT required!)  Please note that hand-tying is not allowed due to the potential choking hazard.  Additionally, these quilts need a good amount of machine quilting to enable them to withstand daily  washings.  Lastly, please check for pins!!

Please bring your finished quilts to Quilter's Corner.  We'll take care of washing and drying the quilts (with fragrance-free detergent), and be sure they get to headquarters for distribution.

** To help defray the cost, Quilter's Corner will discount by 15% any batting purchased for making these quilts, as well as any fabric you wish to purchase for donation.  All donations are tax-deductible (fabric or cash).

Please Note:  Space is limited, so please call in advance (610-459-8993) to let us know you're coming!  We look forward to seeing you!
