The commentary mentioned that the quilts were provided by a local quilting group to welcome the women when they arrived.
Marie Kennedy is helping Moina sort through her stash. Moina has moved into a smaller place and does not have room for all her fabric.
Marie will be bringing some in each week for us to choose and for Community.
