About a year ago we heard about an Australian group called 'Quilts 4 Kids'. They are a group of cross stitchers world wide who cross stitch squares to make into large quilts for kids with a life threatening or terminal illness.
I checked out their website and was amazed at how beautiful the quilts were that they made as a gift to these children. Noah is one of the 'Kids of 2009' and are currently asking for stitchers for his quilt and also for 3 other children. You can check it out here.
It is so nice to hear of people doing things like this for the kids and their families. We are looking forward to seeing the completed quilt within the next few months. Here is just one of the beautiful completed quilts that they have put together.
they do beautiful work Lisa I can't wait to see Noah's. Junior got a lovely quilt a few years ago from a program like that here in the states, actually it goes by the same name.
