I've contributed, fabric, orphan quilt blocks and quilt tops. I've not yet contributed a finished quilt but am planning on contributing several soon. Thank you Beth for presenting a forum for these activities.

In case you are not familiar with the program: "A Guardian ad Litem is an advocate for a child whose welfare is a matter of concern for the court. In legal terms, it means "guardian for the lawsuit". When the court is making decisions that will affect a child's future, the child needs and deserves a spokesperson - an objective adult to provide independent information about the best interests of the child. While other parties in the case are concerned about the child, the Guardian ad Litem is the only person in the case whose sole concern is the best interests of the child, and he or she is assigned as an advocate for the child for the duration of the court process."<br /><br />The kids need something that is theirs as they move through the process.Wilma Leehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06970806425575662256noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3051822127346756240.post-74228835428967074822012-06-27T06:33:50.909-07:002012-06-27T06:33:50.909-07:00What a great idea!
