Off to Ronny's in Alberta
I was given 9 sets of embroidered nursery blocks along with some fabric to finish them up. They weren't in my wheelhouse at all - and then when chatting with DD, she mentioned that she and friends had served breakfast at the local Ronald McD House and taken a tour. During the tour they were shown a closet full of stacks of homemade quilts to be given to the children who passed through the doors to keep - so they go through a lot of quilts. The ladies thought they'd like to help but they didn't sew. DD does and was going to pull together a top and then teach them to tied a quilt. So I took the blocks I'd been given, added fabrics from my stash.... And now there are 11 quilt tops off to be finished for this program.

Wow, that’s a way to be resourceful and generous with your time. Great little quilts... and for a good cause. When my first DGS was in the NICU for nine days, my son and DIL stayed at a Ronald McDonald house in Miami.
