I neglected to mention more things to be happy about our guild. We have quite a philanthropic endeavor. Beside all the Comfort Quilts we make for the Doves (retreat for abused women and children) We also donate grocery store gift certificates for those in need to the paster of the church where we meet, also donate to our local Historical Society, to our local Zoo which cares for animals who no longer can live in the wild, to our Middle School for programs about changing how our kids look at life and also to the Moms & Dads project, helping with their programs to teach new parents.
Our annual quilt show and our Opportunity Quilt provides the wherewith all for these donations...........and besides that, we have so much fun!!!!
