The Quilters
would like to thank all who supported the December quilt sale. It was again, very successful. Proceeds from the sale will be used in the coming months to make quilts that provide warmth and comfort to those in need. Quilts left over after the sale were donated to Brooklyn Avenues, the Veterans Hospital, Alexandra Women's Shelter and the Salvation Army Harbor Lights Center.
We welcome anyone who would like to join us for a morning of fellowship!
You only need to know how to tie a knot or cut a square - sewing skills are not required. We meet at the church from
9 am to noon
on the first, third and fifth Wednesdays of each month, September through May. Midway through the morning, we break to enjoy a cup of coffee/tea and some sweet treats. We would love to have you join us! If you'd like more info, contact Jo Anderle
