The Baby Bundle project is one of several community service projects
sponsored by the Austin Area Quilt Guild. Our guild provides quilts to
agencies that promote the health and well-being of families with
newborns as well as an agency that facilitates services for abused
children. The charities then distribute each quilt to infants and
children within their programs.
Current Guild agencies are:
Travis County WIC breast feeding support clinics
Healthy Families - Travis County Agency for First child - infant to 3 yrs old
Children's Advocacy Center - Children on their way to foster homes, all ages
The
Guild furnishes kits to members wishing to participate in this project,
although members are also encouraged to create quilts using their own
materials. We ask every guild member to make a Baby Bundle quilt during
the month of his or her birthday.
This is a year-round
project; Baby Bundle Coordinators have a table at every Guild meeting to
receive quilts, issue kits, or consult about the making of a quilt.
