It’s not just quilts for the Jenkins anymore.  Did you know that he and Carole have a small sewing group for youth ages 10 and up at Breath of Life UMC in Shively?  Last year it just happened that extra transportation was needed on one of the Wednesday nights that Shiloh serves there, and the Jenkins volunteered.  During the course of things one of the children said he thought they should make a quilt.  Well, jumping right into quilt making is a bit of a reach, so they started with pillows.  Each month a group of about 4 have been meeting to learn about sewing machines and making a small pillow.  These evenings have been “exhilarating and exhausting!” Starting in July, there will be a group of 5 teens beginning the task of making quilts.  Each one will make one, and Dick has been busy cutting and preparing their kits.   It promises to be fun and fruitful.
