Edited to say our ages range from 40 to 90

We have a group of ladies, ranging in age from 30s to 90s, who meet in our church fellowship hall every Tuesday for four or five hours. Some quilt, some work on crafts, others just visit and enjoy the fellowship. There are some fantastic quilters always willing to show how it's done. They were the ladies who inspired me to make my first quilt.

We have many mission projects. Yesterday we worked on making 300 pairs of shorts for the Shoebox ministry.
