PeaceQuilts home base is in Lilavois, Haiti, on the campus of a school. Schools in Haiti are not free, but education is highly valued. Many of the quilters' children are able to attend because of the earnings the women make through sales of their quilts and other products.
Some of the quilters learned their basic sewing skills, including fancy embroidery stitches illustrated in this quilt, at the Centre Manager, a training program for women to provide them with marketable skills.
