Well-wishers feather Huntley quilters' funds

HUNTLEY – About two months ago, local Quilts of Valor volunteers who make lap-sized blankets as a thank-you to area veterans were on the verge of retiring their sewing needles.

Demand for the quilts was slowing and the group’s start-up money was vanishing.

Now, though, the group is in business for 18 months more because of overwhelming response to a late-October Northwest Herald article on the plight of the Huntley-based group.
