FIRST LUTHERAN CHURCH QUILTS - PART I

These were made by a group of ladies at the First Lutheran Church.  Last year they made 57 quilts that were donated to the Lutheran World Relief.  They are pushing for 60 this year.  Also, they make more quilts to sell at the sale.  All the money from the sale goes to buy supplies to make more quilts.  But, they aren't done yet.  If anyone loses their home from fire or whatever, they give the family a quilt.  It does not have to be a member of their church or any church.  If they live in Lyons or the surrounding area and they lose their home - they give them a free quilt.  Now, like me, you think they have a large group of ladies that make these.  Wrong !!!!  There are six ladies, sometimes two more help, that do this - but that's it.  I couldn't believe that small number did such great things.  Some of their quilts are all hand done and some they do on a sewing machine.  Each person does what they want.  By the way, all these that I show in my posts are still for sale, if anyone is interested.  I have their name, address and phone number.  I told them I would tell you folks on my blog in case you are interested.  Their prices are more than reasonable.
