Graduating 8th Graders

The weather has turned very warm in Tennessee so our thoughts are certainly not on delivering quilts. But the 8th graders at Forge Ridge School are graduating and headed off to High School in the Fall and we certainly did not want them to miss out on receiving a Sewing Hands quilt!  So the process began again.....

Tops arrived from Florida - expertly sewn by the wonderful "hands" there.  Sharon basted and quilted a gigantic amount for the 23 graduating students.

Help was definitely needed to get all of these quilts finished with binding.  Here are two new Sewing Hands - Harriet and Frieda.  They helped Sharon whittle down that pile in no time flat!

And so another deadline was met.  Frieda accompanied Sharon for the delivery on the last day of school.  Normally the older kids don't show much emotion upon receiving their quits but not this group!  They were thrilled.
