Welcome to the Healing Quilts in Medicine Website

We are dedicated to projects that bring beauty and education through art quilts into hospitals. This is the vision of Judy House who died of breast cancer in July 2005. In 2012, we brought our organization under the umbrella of Sacred Threads, a 501(c)3 non-profit. This allows us to better meet our mission for providing artwork for hospitals.
