Eighteen Christmas stockings were quilted and made by Colleen Turner, Marilyn Billingsley, Beverly Geldreich, and Joyce Rutherford.  In addition to making the stockings, the women purchased stocking stuffers for each of the stockings with their own money to be donated to 12 children and six adults who are in transitional housing at Safe Haven.  Of all the stockings made, Joyce made the most!!!
