What are we sewing now?
  Whatever the community needs. . . 

Here's a Note from our Charity Chair: Janelle Duncan.
Sewing and giving donations to our community is an important part of our Guild.

From May 2020- December 2020, we donated:

•  Diamond Children Hospital....... 32 quilts and some surgical caps 
• Hands of a Friend........32 quilts, 20 totes, and 50 Christmas stockings
• Project Linus........... 25 quilts 
• St. Andrews Clinic........30 quilts, 6 receiving blankets, 80 totes, and 200 Christmas stockings
• Valley Assistance........ 700 Christmas stockings

Our Charity Bee has been keeping active with sewing donations even in this unpredictable time. These donations are given to Hands of a Friend, Valley Assistance, the Veterans, and St. Andrews Clinic.
Now with the virus, we are finding out that giving the donations to the organizations are in somewhat wait and see mode. But we are still sewing and giving to whom we can.

Two of the more popular items to sew are twin to lap size quilts and totes with handles. These are available in kits or you can ask for a pattern to work on your own. We also have kits for making surgical caps and walker bags. 

 At this time we are not meeting as a group, but kits are available for pick up at 1242 N. Paseo de Golf in Green Valley. Donations may also be dropped off there.

The quilt galleries (below) show some of the donated quilts we've made recently.
