BVQ is at it again! Many members met at our May Charity drop off/pick up afternoon at Neumann. 34 pillowcases for Ryan’s Cases for Smile and 30 finished quilts were collected.  Special recognition goes out to Lee Hickman who finished several quilts this month, all new designs and lots of color.  She is featured in some of the pictures above.  
 Organizations we have continue to focus on this year have included Young Moms (Chester County), Ryan’s Cases for Smiles, Lutheran Community Services (New Castle County), Chester County Hospice (especially veterans), The Hickman, Quilts of Valor, and Chester County Family Academy.  Jeanne Phillips and Selina Faulkner took a large load of quilts to Young Moms this past week and they were so appreciative.

    Hi I'm Deb, BVQ webmaster and official blog runner! I am a retired Medical Technologist,  having worked the night shift at Chester County Hospital for 30 years. I think I have sewed forever – my mom sewed, my grandmother sewed, and in 1984 I decided to make a "blanket" for my about-to-be baby....it was 3 layers sewn together with a binding!  Little did I know it was a quilt!  I am basically self-taught, but continue to learn as I hang out with BVQ.  My basement work area is seriously quilt cluttered and my better half asks no questions!  I have too many UFO’s and want-to-do’s than I can count, but I guess that makes me a true quilter!
