What a great find!
This morning I came across two tops for baby quilts that I made last December (scraps from the Dinoroar kids quilt ). I had just enough scraps for two baby quilts but I wasn’t sure who to give them to - it’s been hard finding charities willing to take them in my country, where quilting isn’t as popular, and I think most of our friends are done having kids.
But then I had a brainwave this morning. An acquintance I’ve known for a long time is treated for a life-threatening illness, in the same hospital that I am a patient at, in the same department. We visit each other in our rooms when we’re both in on the same day (my illness is chronic and not life-threatening, but still requires frequent treatment). Hospitals aren’t the best place to visit friends but still, it’s also nice to see a familiar face there. My acquintance is due to be a grandparent this summer. I’m thinking of gifting one to my friend the next time I see them there. They can either keep it for when baby visits them or pass it on to the new parents.
