The Auxiliary to Driscoll Children’s Hospital is excited to announce our “My Favorite Things” Quilt Contest!

Driscoll Children's Hospital "Helping Hands and Loving Hearts" Quilt Contest

We are currently accepting crib size quilts to be part of this quilting contest.  The winning quilter will have the opportunity to have their quilt auctioned off at Fiesta De Los Ninos, with the funds raised going to help fund projects and services of Driscoll Children’s Hospital.  Other quilts submitted will be sold at the Carousel Gift Shop at Driscoll to raise funds for the Auxiliary to Driscoll Children’s Hospital.
