Tonight they sent me the corrected quilt block, well, a picture of it. I knew they'd have it done quickly. It's beautiful isn't it? I've been assured that he and Alexis' quilt blocks would be on the same quilt. I can't wait to see her block. When the quilt is finished, I'll get a picture of the finished quilt as well, and after that, I intend to have some sort of event that would lend itself to hosting it. It gets expensive to host the quilt, but it's well worth every penny. The quilts have made it possible to raise so much awareness.

Have a heart baby? You can request a quilt block for them by visiting http://www.chdquilt.org/. You can also view the finished quilts there. It's a wonderful thing they do. If you don't have a heart baby, you can always make a donation (it wouldn't hurt my feelings a bit if you were to make a donation in Alexis and/or Nova's name.) The quilt blocks are all made for free for heart families who request a block, but the supplies certainly aren't free. It's only possible thanks to generous donations.
