Hearts and Hanjds For Sendai

The project for Hideko Ishida, a friend in Sendai, Japan, is now complete.  I have confirmation that the 20 quilts made from blocks contributed by friends all around the world, have arrived safe and sound to Hideko.  A dontaion has also been made to Hideko for use in a charity of her choosing in the amount of $1500.00 after expenses.  Thanks go out to all who have contributed.  I am looking forward to hearing about their showing in the Tagawa Internation Quilt Festival!  It is my hope that they create quite a stir for crazy quilting as well as showing the love and friendship that are stitched in each quilt.  Now I will move onto to new projects with my group, World Wide Crazy Quilters.  Thank you everyone for sharing yourself with this project
