Last August, Lapreil Schwan and Patti Taber chose assorted medallions and coordinating fabrics from Community Quilt’s stash and placed them in paper bags to be purchased by participants for $2 each. The ladies had to use the medallions in the centers of their quilts, but could use other fabrics if they desired.
Three gift certificates were given to those voted winners by our members on May 19. The finished quilts will be displayed at our Quilt Show this year.CQ Challenge
Winners were: Marcia McMullen, 1st; Judy Larsen and Kathy Barrett, tied for 2nd and 3rd
Our Community Service
Community Quilts is a service project of Mountain Top Quilters. We meet monthly at Las Fuentes Retirement Center for a workday on the 4th Monday of every month except December.
We create quilt tops, kits and “sandwich” quilts for machine or hand quilting orsew machine tying at these sewing sessions.
Kits for piecing, quilts for quilting or tying and/or binding are distributed at our monthly guild meeting.
These quilts are donated throughout Yavapai County to non-profit hospices, children’s adoptive services and women’s shelters.
If you have questions or wish to participate, please stop by our table at the next guild thread meeting to learn how you can help with this wonderful community service project.
