BPL's Pratt City Branch Library Group Donates Quilts To Nursing Home

Members of Needles & Thread, which meets weekly at Pratt City Branch Library, donated over 20 quilts like this one as Christmas gifts to residents of Birmingham Nursing & Rehabilitation Center on nearby Dugan Avenue in Pratt City.

The Birmingham Public Library and our patrons love to give back to our communities.

Members of Needles & Thread, an adult group which meets weekly at the Pratt City Branch Library, is a prime example. Members of Needles & Thread, including Pratt City library assistant Kenyata Rogers, spent the past three months making quilts. On Wednesday, December 18, 2019, the group drove to Birmingham Nursing & Rehabilitation Center on nearby Dugan Avenue, and donated the quilts to residents there.

The nursing home staff said the quilts were a welcome surprise and will be greatly appreciated by their residents.
