The House Quilt Project

The House Quilt Project

About

Welcome Home!
The House Quilt Project was established in June of 2010, to assist Furnishing Hope, who works with designers to create interior rooms and entire houses to help those in need.

About Me
I live in Southern California and am a contemporary quilt maker who believes in giving back to my community with "The House Quilt Project." I work with individual quilters to coordinate the making of patriotic house quilts for the walls of rooms for individuals wounded in service to our country, Heart of the Home for women and children who are transitioning out of homelessness and Habitat for Humanity. The list of projects that we have done are in this column of information.

The Project
Quilt artists have made house quilts at their own expense, which includes shipping to me. All house quilts are now 14” square. Patriotic House Quilts for Wounded Service Members. Heart of the Home house quilts began in 2017. They are for women and children that are transitioning out of homelessness. See the upper tabs for more information, what is needed, and shipping info.

Since the project began, over a 700 house quilts have been made on behalf of Furnishing Hope. Thank you! This is a nation-wide project.

Quotes about The House Quilt Project

"Thank you for the beautiful quilts. I gave Povis his last week. It brought tears to his eyes."

"The ART that your team made and you delivered was so incredible! Great job, thanks for being so willing to give back."

"These are beautiful! We are so grateful you are so generous with these quilts. Thank you. And love this "A quilt is like a hug that makes one feel comforted; sometimes a random bright spot of color, sometimes a memory of something significant in one's life."

Habitat for Humanity - 2010

In June of 2010 upon my acceptance to coordinate and make small house quilts under the umbrella of Furnishing Hope - as a way to welcome new home owners for a Habitat for Humanity subdivision in San Juan Capistrano, CA. I worked with the interior designers for each house, so that each art quilter could visualize the decor and create a one-of-a-kind wall quilt that embraced each designers vision.
