Can You See the Love in These Quilts??!!!

July Quilt Day

Some of our volunteers during our quilt day July 17th. Thanks for helping make more quilts to send to needy children. Because of our volunteers, in June, we were able to send 25 quilts to and orphanage in Chihuahua, Chihuahua and 50 quilts to tornado victims in Mississippi. Thank you!

Working Together for the Kids

Well, it's been a busy few months here at Kidz Quiltz. We sent quilts and water-proof material to Haiti, sent over 400 quilts to World Vision, and 50 quilts to Mississippi to help the recent tornado victims. We're so thankful for our volunteers who work countless hours in making these quilts for the children. Here are some photos of our recent quilting day.

We had about 20 volunteers busy working on Saturday.

Lyle, our treasurer, opted to work hard on our books instead of quilting today (though Lyle has made his fair share of quilts!).

Blankets for Haiti Work Day

We had a great 'Blankets for Haiti' work day this past Saturday. We worked on 50 quilts that will go to World Vision in hopes of helping with the relief work in Haiti. Thanks to all our volunteers for a great, fun day and making a difference.

Lots of love goes into these quilts for kids.

20 Quilts Delivered to Local PD & FD

Last week Kidz Quiltz delivered 10 quilts each to our local Fire and Police Departments. These quilts will be put in the police cars and fire trucks ready to be used in cases of emergency.

Thanks to our Ft. Lupton public servants for their faithful work and our Kidz Quiltz volunteers who support them.

250 Blankets Sent to World Vision

Kidz Quiltz sent 250 quilts to World Vision this week. World Vision is a Christian humanitarian group dedicated to helping those less fortunate across the globe. Kidz Quiltz volunteers packed up the quilts and took them to World Vision's distribution center in Denver.

THANK YOU VOLUNTEERS!

Quilting Day

While Kidz Quiltz has many volunteers daily in-and-ot of its building, every once in a while we host a Quilting Day. This usually takes place on a Saturday when we can get all our volunteers together at the same time. It's a great day of getting together with friends and helping with a great cause.

Our wonderful building that houses 10 sewing machines, several quilting frames and a selection of fabric that gets creative juices flowing.
