Each year the Santa Rosa Quilt Guild makes and donates quilts and baby caps to organizations in our community. The quilts are made from fabric and batting that has been generously donated to the guild, or from our own fabric stash. Guild fabric is available in precut kit form for construction of quilt tops for your convenience. These tops are layered and quilted during “Quilt-a-Thons” which are scheduled several times during the year.
Guild members are encouraged to stay and participate in quiltathons to help with the many tasks involved in layering, basting and machine quilting. Quilt-a-Thons are fun!
Our guild members made 1001 quilts in 2006! I wish you could all be there when I deliver the quilts to see the happy faces and wonderful comments. I want to thank all of you that work tirelessly to make this possible.
