COMMUNITY QUILT PROJECTS
WE NEED YOUR SKILLS!
MVQG works on many community projects such as masks, cinch bags, baby quilts for Michael's House (place for at-risk youth) as well as other needs as they arise. Please contact the Community Quilts Project Coordinator for more information by clicking on the email icon below.
Tornado Victims Helped
|
Twenty 20 quilts were donated in December 2021 to the relief effort for the tornado victims in Kentucky. Bill's Donuts in Centerville, working with a local church, collected items which have been taken to Kentucky. I know we usually try to keep the quilts to help locally but I felt that the need in hard hit Kentucky was greater this time. Carol G, Community Quilts Chair |

Hospice
On August 12, 2021 Carol delivered 42 quilts to Hospice of Dayton. They give a quilt to each person that is admitted and the families will keep them after their loved one passes. Thank you to Lois N. for putting Carol in touch with that facility. Also, thank you to Priscilla A. She made most of the quilts we donated. Hospice has an ongoing need for finished lap size quilts (approx. 42"). If you would like to donate a quilt, you can get in touch with Carol by clicking on the email icon at the bottom of the page or see Carol at our monthly guild meetings.
