“Charity Quilt Day” March 29th Wraps Up “National Quilt Month”
To wrap up “National Quilt Month,” Judy Howard is designating March 29th as “Charity Quilt Day.” This is a campaign to raise awareness and funding for the sacrificial volunteer work of hundreds of thousands of quilters who provide comforters for sick babies, orphans, homeless and elderly people, cancer and Alzheimer’s patients, soldiers and victims of disaster—those most in need of the touch of God’s love and comfort that quilts represent.
On March 29, Judy is donating the net proceeds of Amazon sales of her books, “Heavenly Patchwork I and II” and “Centennial Stitches—Oklahoma History in Quilts” and companion DVDs to non-profit organizations like local Quilt Guilds, The Hugs Project, Binky Patrol, ABC Quilts, Project Linus, Quilts for Injured Soldiers, Wrap Them in Love, Newborns in Need, Quilts for Kids, My Brother’s Keeper, etc, that provide charity quilts. You may even designate your favorite local or national charity quilting non-profit.
Besides donating to worthy charities, those who purchase Judy’s award-winning gift books on Amazon on March 29th will receive bonus gifts valued at $135 of free quilt patterns, quilting tips and book excerpts by renowned celebrity quilt artists and historians like Kaye Wood, Darcy Ashton, Nancy Kirk, Ruth Harris, Jennie Rayment, Judy Anne Breneman, M.J. Van Deventer, Lucille Ralstom, Dorcas Publishing, NLS Productions and more.
