“We are a small group of women that mostly make quilts for wounded Veterans…we have a woman in her 80s that we refer to as the Energizer Bunny. She fell and broke 2 vertebrae in her back, and after a few weeks of recovery, she was bored so she started making small pillows for the Veteran or anyone who needs a small pillow to put under an arm or leg or behind their neck, so far she has made 60 pillows.
We just delivered 127 quilts to the James Haley Hospital in Tampa to the spinal cord injury unit, a few pillows were delivered, but this is where we saw the need for more pillows.” explained Nina Ouimette.
