10 Quilts & Blankets from Jaimee M.

One of our guild's friends, Jaimee M., continues to generously supply Katie's Comforters with quilts and blankets from afar. She creates these cheerful comforters and then lets us know she is sending them to the hospital - doubly generous, because she has to ship them from out of state!

Here is Jaimee's latest batch:
The applique bunnies in spring colors are so cute!
Look at the variety - something for everyone!
We are grateful for your generous support, Jaimee - thank you!

Mickie and Owen Deliver Comfort

Dedicated Guild members Mickie and her son, Owen (Owen is a junior member) went out of their way to help Katie's Comforters by picking up and delivering 14 quilts made by friends - nine were made by Margie (in Lynden) and five were made by 12-year old Helena!

Katie's Comforters Guild is able to deliver comfort to patients only because of the generosity and dedication of all of our guild members and friends, like Mickie and Owen. From sewing to delivering, from volunteering to help behind the scenes to donations of fabric or funds, in spreading the word by mouth and media, every single contribution helps - and we are GRATEFUL!

Thank you, Mickie, Owen, Luke, Margie and Helena!

Jaimee & Ethan M.


Jaimee M. sent these two photos with the following note:
"Sending these 4 quilts and 1 blanket today. 
Ethan wanted to make a quilt for the kids, too, so the rag quilt is his first quilt. 
He was very excited to make it, and has already started on a second one!"

As we've said, you are never too young (or too old) to be needed and helpful to others. And you're never too far away, either - Jamiee and her family live in another state!

Thank you, Jaimee and Ethan!
