2011 Overview

2011 was a great year for Kidz Quiltz.

Not only were we able to give away 593 quilts to tornado victims, World Vision, local Food Banks, and others, but every day was busy with volunteers and people performing community service making quilts.

We started a new chapter of Kidz Quiltz in Arnold, Missouri. We're very thankful for Rachel Arnold to be leading this chapter.

We were also able through countless donations, make the final payment on our building!

We thank the Lord for continuing to provide for Kidz Quiltz. While we still have some financial burdens, we recognize that God is working and He has blessed Kidz Quiltz beyond our imagination. We look forward to a great 2012.

Taking 105 quilts to Joplin


In September, Lyle and Wilma Hamilton loaded up 105 quilts to take to the Joplin area that had been devastated by the tornado earlier in 2011.


The quilts went to Rural Compassion where Steve Donaldson was their to receive these quilts and help distribute them to families in need.

Paying Off our Building

In late September 2011, Kidz Quiltz made its final payment on our mortgage. The building is officially ours! You may remember the photo on our blog of the piano for sale. Well, the piano sold and that money went to good use in helping us make that final payment.
