2022-2023 Quilts of Valor 

​

Producing Quilts of Valor is an ongoing process. Piecing blocks, tops, quilting tops, binding, labels, and washing completed quilts are tasks for which volunteers are needed!  Please contact Louise Grant if you are willing to do any task.

Machine Quilters needed!

We have several quilt tops to match with machine quilters!  Please contact Louise

Grant (lpgrant100@comcast.net) if you are willing to take a top this coming month.

                                                                                                                    

We need to increase our supply of presentation cases.  I am attaching the instructions here.  A case                           

takes a total of 1 yard of material, usually 3/4 + 1/4 contrast.  If you are interested in doing one or                             

two, let me know and I'll get material to you!  Instructions are below.

 Thank you again for your interest and willingness to participate!
