Hearts for Hospice

​​​

Stitching heart door hangers for Houston hospices is an ongoing HEG project.

​​​

Our Guild has gifted hearts to the HCA Healthcare Hospice & Family Care

In March 2026, we delivered 31 hearts made during 2025

In January 2025, we delivered 34 hearts made during 2024

​

​Our members use their skills including: embroidery, cross stitch, needle point, sewing to finish, add charms, ribbon and cording to embellish hearts for hospices.  Annually, the hearts are delivered to our selected Hospice organization who give them to grieving families. 

Supplies are available.
