Last Friday, The Community Market organized a tying event for us in Gypsum. We were fortunate to have 30 amazing volunteers come together to tie 90 blankets for the Posada event in December. Everyone had a great time. We are immensely grateful to these volunteers for their support of our nonprofit!

Look what just arrived! 😍 We received a wonderful donation of quilt tops and quilts from a kind former Eagle Valley resident. Even from the front range, she continues to support our mission to help those in need across the Valley. Her generous heart is making a real difference! Thank you!

We're highlighting Allie, one of our board members, today. Her commitment to OHB is incredible: not only does she serve as secretary, but she is also a prolific quilter! Allie began making quilts in March and to date, has finished countless others.

This week's showcase is a gorgeous (and very large!) donated quilt. The woman who made the quilt top heard about OHB through The Community Market and attended our blanket making event there in August. She also brought this quilt top to donate and we are so grateful for her contribution!

We can't believe how cool this child's quilt turned out. The bright orange and blue blocks with the science prints will be sure to please an aspiring scientist. Don't miss the DNA helix quilting pattern!

This cozy barnyard-themed child's quilt is made out of soft flannel and we paired it with blue and yellow coordinating fabrics. If you look really closely, you'll see the fun chicken quilting pattern. We think a young aspiring farmer or animal lover will enjoy it.

Recently, we've received quite a few used blanket donations. While we appreciate the spirit of generosity, we believe that the people we serve here in Eagle County deserve to be treated with dignity. That means that we only accept new blankets for our community members in need.
