These quilters work independently in their own homes to make lap blankets for shut-ins in retirement homes as well as those being cared for at home. The Extraodinary Ministers of Holy Communion for the homebound deliver these blankets to our parishioners. We also pass them onto Catholic patients at the Hospice House. Two of our parishioners attend to any Catholics coming to the hospice house. They receive our blessed blankets and blessed medals and scapular. When the person attending has died, the family has the blanket as a memory of the outreach and care offered by Holy Cross. We also provide blankets to new moms through birthright. The fabric is cut to size and ready for you to sew. The finished product is about 40' x 50'. It is fun and easy to sew. For more information contact Pat McLain at 620-665-7824 or email with questions.
