Community Service Quilt Time

This year's community service quilt meeting was changed to a Saturday. Besides the service quilts there was also a Sew and Tell time. Everyone brought snacks and there was fabric flying all around the room as members measured, cut fabric, cut batting and put the quilt sandwiches together. Over thirty quilts were done this year. That is almost double what we accomplished last year. This years quilts will go to Hinton Home in Farmersville. Many of the quilts were completed before the meeting by Joan, Pat, donna and Debi. Their help really made a difference. Those that came were able to take quilts home to tie or machine quilt later.

                                     Below is a quick show of the quilts that were finished.
