Humboldt Bronco Quilt

I'm sure you have all heard of the devastating Humboldt Bronco's bus crash last month. There isn't anything more I can say that hasn't been said already. While I didn't know anyone on the bus, Humboldt is in my neck of the woods and my family and I try to take in a few SJHL hockey games every year.

The Haus of Stitches in Humboldt put out a request for lap quilts. Their goal was 200 quilts, and the plan was to give them to the people most effected by this tragedy. My sister and I got together and sewed a lap quilt to donate to the cause.

It is such a cute and simple pattern, I can definitely see myself making it again!

My kids even got in on sewing quilt blocks for the Humboldt Broncos. Someone at our local quilt shop donated fabric and the kids went in to help sew some blocks!

I just checked the Facebook page and it sounds like they received upwards of 1000 quilts from all over the world. That is so incredibly amazing! Quilts have already been given to the Nipawin Hawks, and to the staff at the Humboldt radio station. For whoever ends up with our quilt - I hope it brings you little comfort.
