Quilt for Grace

.

We have an employee in our Buffalo office with a very sick 5 year old child, Grace. Her grandparents are throwing a benefit to help offset medical costs not covered by insurance and our company decided to get into the action. I'm the co-ordinator of this effort in our Rochester office. We're selling purple ribbons for a $5 or more donation. The woman heading up this project bought this quilt and fabric pens and we're all signing the quilt to give to Grace. Purple is her favorite color, as you might have guessed. We're also putting together gift baskets that will be auctioned off at the fundraiser. I'm donating a framed paper quilt with matching card, a bookmark, a Sticky Notes pad (in purple!) and a pin & Sticky Notes gift set.

It's been fun working on this - something that doesn't require a committee, numerous meetings, long-awaited decisions by Management and 42 people telling me why it won't work. I just emailed the woman leading the project, "Want some help?" Fun, easy & meaningful. Just like life should be.

Would you like to have one of my rainbow baby afghans for the auction?
You are such a good organizer.
