Our newest sponsor donated Jem Platinum sewing machines to the Kids Quilt Program. These wonderful machines will be used by many children in our area for years to come. Because the machines are portable, volunteers are able to move them from classroom to classroom, and the results are happy, proud faces on students who have learned to sew and make quilts!
The Kids Quilt Project
KQP is a unique combination of teachers, volunteers and sponsors who reach into the community to give school-aged children the opportunity to learn to quilt.
