Hi friends, one of the women in our church quilting group came across an article about Joplin, MO quilting guild being wiped out of supplies, material etc. and they do a lot of charity quilting.(Many of their own homes were destroyed as well.)
There was an address to send supplies and material (or money) in thequiltshow.com newsletter.
We thought we should share some of our material and supplies, however we are wondering if The Quilt Show newsletter is a reliable source as we are unfamiliar with it.
Anybody know? Or can you verify where to send or who's attention to send to?
Thanks.

It is a valid request and website here is another linkhttp://creatingthehive.com/blog-post...needs-our-help
It tells you more about it. They have received items from various places but they may still need help.

thanks everybody. this is enough to get us going. I knew I could rely on you for direction.
I can email one guild and make sure they are not overrun with certain supplies and in desperate need of other supplies as well as ask them about the other guild in town that does not have web connections.
