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.

2010 Stats

In 2010, Kidz Quiltz had 5,500 volunteer hours, distributed 750 quilts locally and abroad, and had 552 community service hours. How's that for giving back to the community? Thanks to all our supporters!

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

Fairs, Parades and Shows, Oh My!

It has been an incredibly busy summer for Kidz Quiltz. We've been involved with parades, county fairs and quilting shows. Plus, we've been doing tons of fundraising - including our first golf tournament. We're within a few thousand dollars of paying off our building completely and cannot wait to see what else is in store for Kidz Quiltz. We're so thankful for the opportunity to be helping the children. If you're interested in becoming more involved, please conact us at 303-857-8600 or kidzquiltz@yahoo.com. Enjoy our photos.
