Community Quilt Connection, Inc

I personally began in 2000 to create a space for people to come and quilt for charity. We lost our space to Walmart being built but was blessed with another at Cincinnati Mills Mall. When the mall closed in 2009 everything was put into storage. this past September we emptied the unit and spread our wealth with other non profits. Currently we individually sew for charity of choice. Some of us meet at a township building to teach others about giving back or help one another. At times we are asked about our school program. There we teach how to make a charity quilt so they can earn community service hours. This is especially good for special needs students who are unable to get out for service. We make quilts, seat belt buddies, nursing home bibs, teddy bears, doll clothes and often do special requests.  We have shared with police, fire departments and schools in Southwestern Ohio. We have also gone to Michigan, Arizona and Nevada to share our story and how to make items.

Why,  because the smile on a persons face that they were thought of in a good light is worth it all.
