It's been a very busy week at The Sweatshop as we moved into our new space at church! Exciting times - and everyone's so happy to be in the space with all our stuff!
Look at all those smiling faces!!
And now it's time to show you the quilts that we've delivered this week...
This pretty quilt, pieced by Sharon, was given to a woman who had back surgery this week. I love all those houses - some of the windows even have cats sitting in them!
This quilt, made with string blocks pieced by Sharon, is now comforting a woman who was recently diagnosed with breast cancer. There's even some breast cancer ribbon fabric in these blocks....
This bright, cheerful quilt, made by Connie, is going to a 7 year old boy who has been diagnosed with a brain tumor. Hopefully he will find that the happy frogs and the bright colors make him smile!
This quilt, given to us by an anonymous donor, is going to a man who is in the hospital being monitored for a brain aneurysm. We hope that the bright cheerful colors of this beautiful apple core quilt help keep his spirits up while he waits!
And this pretty little embroidered quilt is for a newborn baby girl in our church! This is a beautiful little quilt that was donated to us, and I apologize - I cannot remember who sent it! If you sent it, let me know and I'll give credit where credit is due...
So that's what we've been working on this week! Thanks to all of you who help support this ministry in so many ways - you are greatly appreciated, and an important part of what we do!!
Hugs!
Sarah

ReplyDeleteNice space! Wish I were closer. It looks like so much fun!
ReplyDeleteI have a feeling that room will produce some great fellowship and quilts!
ReplyDeleteI love the border on the little boy's quilt. It really gives it an interesting twist. The house quilt is amazing!
Great space, great group of quilters. Love seeing all that you get accomplished.
ReplyDeleteCongrats again on your new space. All of you wonderful ladies deserve it for all the work you do to spread love to others with your quilts.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your beautiful new space! Gorgeous quilts, too. I just finished (finally) an apple core not long ago, and I can testify that it was a gift of love.
ReplyDeleteWhat an awesome new space - it looks like y'all have ample room to spread out and get stuff done. I love that apple core quilt. It looks like a great way to use up some scraps.
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful new space - I'm so happy for you and your crew, you'll be able to get things done and delivered so much easier! Congrats!
ReplyDeleteI'm so excited for y'all and your new space! Now you've got room to really make that fabric fly! If I were close, I would be in one of those seats! :) What a beautiful difference you are making in so many lives!
ReplyDeleteThe new space looks wonderful! What a great encouragement for you all to keep giving in your ministry. The new quilts are so lovely and personal. Prayers going up for all involved.
