The Lake Mayfield Quilters.
This organization has been around for years and meets at our Community Center beginning at 9:00 a.m. on the 2nd and 4th Tuesday's of each month. The quilters' focus is to make quilts for cancer patients, especially those going through chemotherapy. They attach a small card to each quilt with a terrific saying. It is: "Believe in Miracles, They happen everyday. Stay Positive. We are thinking of you, The Lake Mayfield Quilters."
The Lake Mayfield Quilters also provide quilts to others with catastrophic diseases. They have given many, many quilts to the Madigan Hospital and hundreds to cancer patients. Lots of people contact the quilters when they have a friend or relative being treated for cancer. They are a non-profit organization and love donations, either in money or materials. Jim and I make it a point to donate each and every month to help buy needed supplies.

To the Mayfield Lake Quilters,
I just started chemotherapy last Wednesday and was gifted with one of your quilts at the beginning of the session.
At a time when it seems like the world is falling apart, I was extremely moved by your labors and compassion. I can't help but wonder how many lives you've touched in a positive way.
