What started out as one Hug quilt became two, and the two became 25, which were donated to Beth's Place, a local women's shelter here in Illinois. Some of you contributed to this, so I thought I would share the wonderful letter I got from them yesterday - -
"Thank you so much for the donation to BETHS Place of 25 awesome quilts! We have been giving one to a family to our clients and they are ecstatic. We have to limit it or one family will get as many as 5 or 6 and all will be gone. Each mom looks and looks before she decides the one for home. Please know how much we appreciate them. We have had a busy and stressful month and it goes on and on. Your belief in us helps us go on. We appreciate your labor of love very much. Sincerely yours, Barbara Utterback, Executive Director."
On a side note, the word BETHS stands for - Because Eventually The Healing Starts.
