My husband received a beautiful quilt from the Victoria’s Quilts from the Neepawa area. It is a beautiful quality quilt made with great care. His cousin arranged for him to have it when she found out he had cancer. It has meant so much to him and is enjoyed every day. Thank you to all the wonderful volunteers who lovingly donate their time effort and supplies. It is truly appreciated.
I requested for a quilt when my mother in law ended her cancer treatments. She loved it so much that she had it wrapped around her when she passed. My mother in law spoke so fondly of the lady that visited her with the quilt and chatted for a while.
Thank you for bringing so much comfort and joy in such a difficult time.
Thank you Victorias Quilt Canada!
I received a beautiful quilt this week just when I needed it most. It truly lifted my spirits and will be a gift that keeps giving for years to come.
I just love, love, love my quilt! The colours are just perfect for my decor in both my bedroom and living room and I use it in both places. What a wonderful thing you’re doing, ladies, for all of us “cancer people”. I can feel the love and care you put into your quilts every time I cover myself with it.
I just received a beautiful quilt from your organization.
How wonderful to receive this gift. I will be starting treatments soon and I will wrap myself in its warmth. Thank you so much for your beautiful work and thoughtfulness.
To the Okotoks branch of Victoria’s Quilts, thank you so much for the beautiful quilt you sent me. It is a comforting reminder that I am not alone and that there is truly caring support during this time
My sister in law, and all of us, were astonished by the beauty and the quality of the quilt!!
A million thanks to your organisation and to the people who created such a work of art!
OMG! Yesterday Anneliese (Ottawa Branch) surprised me with a lovely handmade quilt. I had previously heard of your association. Only when your turn comes, do you realize its full significance. It’s such a wonderful caring gesture, like receiving a warm heartfelt hug when you most need it. MERCI to all quilters donating their time and skills.
Thank you so much to the women of the Ottawa chapter for my beautiful quilt! My partner requested it for me during my breast cancer treatment. It’s been an intense journey of surgery, chemotherapy and targeted treatment and having something so warm and cozy made by such kind and compassionate people makes it just a little bit better. My mother-in-law saw my quilt and requested one for my father-in-law who finished his prostate cancer treatment just as I started my chemotherapy. He loves his quilt as well. Thank you again for your kindness.
I received one of your beautiful quilts today. It is truly beautiful and I am honored to be a recipient of such a treasure.
