Guild sisters at work fr fire vicrtims

My sisters are busy creating quilts for forest fire victims. In the foreground are lovely quilts by Quilterlois. The group is meeting at our Senior Center weekly. Some fire victims appear to have left the area entirely. If we have extras, they will go to victims of the Valley Fire, around Middleton, CA.

WOW! You ladies got organized quickly. The need is great because some of those families lost everything. Comfort comes from knowing that others care. The devastation is so great in that area.

That is fantastic! Our guild is meeting today to work on our donation quilts to give to the fire department. They let us use their older building for our meetings so we are giving back.. How many do you think you will make?

Lovely "warm hug" quilts being made there. Kudos to everyone involved in this effort! It's amazing what big hearts quilters have when a disaster strikes.
