The generosity and talent of the Comforts from the Heart Quilters is wonderful. The "Log Cabin" quilt they created, measuring 53”x71”, was a beautiful addition to the "2023 Harvest Home" Silent Auction at St. Elizabeth Ann Seton Catholic Church.
In 2022, Comforts from the Heart achieved an incredible feat by creating 282 Comfort Quilts. Their generosity extended to various agencies, with 144 quilts blessing organizations such as Good Samaritan Boys Ranch, Mother’s House in Hayti, MO, Newborns in Need, Abilities First, Springfield Villa, Laura’s Home, the Native American Women’s Shelter in Arizona, and Franciscan Villa.
The dedication and kindness of the Comforts from the Heart Quilters are truly making a positive impact in the community. The quilts donated to Franciscan Villa, Laura’s Home, and Abilities First exemplify their commitment to spreading warmth and comfort to those in need.
