We have all heard of the horrible shooting in Aurora Colorado. There is a group that has started on facebook that is making quilts for the victims and the families of those lost. It is Aurora Colorado Emergency Responder Quilts.
Please, if you were looking for a group to make and donate lap quilts to consider checking them out. I will be sending my Midnight Flight quilt out as soon as possible.
Their site says they sent out 83 quilts in short order, for the first responders. Now they are looking to comfort the victims. Lets show our support and start donating today.
I have sent a message to them via facebook. As soon as I hear back I will post info here.
They are asking for the quilt to be 45x45 or a little bigger and gender neutral.
For sending a quilt for in injured victim send to :
Victim Services
