Deann and Sandy taking a turn at the booth. Deann knows how to raise money to help pay off our building. Because of her and generous donors, we owe less than $4,000!

Rodger taking a break. Looks like he's enjoying his food - or maybe Lyle just made a joke.

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.


Cutting. Cutting. Cutting.


Sewing. Sewing. Sewing.

Tying. Tying. Tying.



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.

Deann, our newest board member is busy tie-tacking a quilt.

Working hard.

Lots of love goes into these quilts for kids.

This quilt is in the final steps of tie-tacking before it's finished.
