    Default Does anyone know about flood victim quilts?

    I try to donate quilts to babies in the hospital, but I know that there are families of the recent flood that need help too. I would like to donate some quilts but don't know were to send them.

    You might check on equilateral.com. They usually participate in quilt collection for situations like this or provide information about such collections.

    Check with the Red Cross first, in general, they prefer money to things, especially with shipping costs.
