Comfort Quilts is the Smithtown Stitchers community service project. Our
members make quilts in various sizes. The quilts are distributed to local area
hospitals. The project delivers approximately 600 quilts annually.
Please visit the Comfort Quilt table and volunteer to help. There is always a need
for people to cut fabric into squares, sew squares together and tie quilts. There
are kits of precut blocks ready to be sewn together. These kits can be made into
lap size or twin size tops. (It's your choice) They are a great way to practice new
stitches by machine or by hand, try out new threads or hone your piecing skills.
79 Quilts were turned in this past month.
50 Quilts to the Dolan Clinic, Huntington and Huntington Hospital, Oncology Unit
Way to go! Keep up the good work!
These are 3 samples of finished Comfort Quilts.
