Patsy has a passion to minister to the patients at the St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. She does this with her "Color Me Quilts" project keeping St. Jude's well supplied!
We also work closely with Patsy in her "Color Me Quilts" mission. QQ donated 67 quilts in 2021.
Quilts of Valor
We support Central Arkansas Quilts of Valor, working with this fabulous group of women on a regular basis.
QOV quilts are awarded to service members or living veterans with the purpose of providing healing and comfort.
The 2023 pattern is Split Back Star Block. The Split Back Star Block was designed and written by Kim DiJoseph.

Reminders
- Quilts can be lap, throw, or twin size. They should be clean with no evidence of pet hair or odors such as smoke.
- For ACH pillow cases, please avoid using red as this can make evaluations by the nurses difficult. Finished small pillowcases measure 12x18.
- Colors and patterns should be uplifting!
- Members are asked to donate one quilt per year for donations.
