Bluffton sewists make annual baby quilt donation
FROM FACEBOOK__Allen County Childrens Services recently received 80 baby quilts from the Bluffton Scrap Artist Quilters. The agency notes, "This will provide every baby involved with our agency a quilt for this winter, and we will have enough for any baby who becomes involved with us for the next year. Thank you so much."
