Maggie Kolvenbach is collecting doll quilts for the dementia patients at Somers Manor Nursing Home. These patients are given dolls as part of their treatment. If you would like to make a doll quilt, you can bring it to Maggie at the Guild meeting. A suggested size is approximately 20 by 24 inches. It is important that it not be so big that the quilt gets caught in the wheels of the wheelchairs. Your pattern can be simple and the piece should remain pliable so quilting should not be dense. It is acceptable to use flannel for backing and not use batting. Maggie says to have fun with it and not to worry if your corners aren’t perfect. She thanks you for helping her to make this project a reality.
