Slave Lake quilt initiative


Life has its challenges

we all know this


but what do you do

when a wall of fire

heads your way


destroying everything

in it's path



taking not only your home


but your whole neighbourhood.



If you are a quilter

you pull out those projects

you just aren't sure what to do with



You gather with your friends
 

and you cut

and you sew

and you quilt


everyone pitches in

to make quilts

big and small

for those people in Slave Lake, Alberta

who lost everything.

  1. Bravo to you and your fellow quilters. Can you tell me where you are bringing the quilts? I will post the information on a couple online Canadaian quilt groups that I belong to.
