December 2022 Quilt Donations

Posted on by
Quilting Corners Guild made their presentation of quilts to our four community partners on December 6. Once again our membership has been very busy and created 79 Quilts of Comfort, 8 Quilts of Valour and 107 quilted stockings since our last presentations in July 2022. We are always so happy to share with Matthew’s House Hospice, Quilts of Valour-Canada, My Sister’s Place and Simcoe Manor. Each of these services provide important supports and comforts within our community. Since 2006, QCG has made 1445 quilts and 807 stockings in support of these important organizations. We will take a little break to spend time with family and friends during the holidays, but our needles will be ready to sew in 2023. Happy Holidays! 😊

October Sit n Sew

Posted on by
On October 15th Quilting Corners Guild hosted our fourth and final Sit n Sew for 2022. 13 members and one guest, our friend Karen from Thunder Bay, worked together to make quilted Christmas stockings for our various outreach partners. These are always productive days of sewing, learning and chatter. The total count for the day was 63+ stockings, including the demo samples, the daily work and a few in progress. Well done ladies!
Always in Stitches, Senora😊
