ACQ Charity Quilts December 2022 Newsletter
Arapahoe Quilt Guild has exceeded expectations with quilt donations, over 500 quilts donated to 5 organizations. Thank you to the many members who sewed quilt tops, quilted sandwiches and affixed bindings. Please view the photos. Jan W. delivers quilts to the VOA Clermont Commons and the nurse at VOA Family Motel shows quilty love when she chooses a specific quilt for one of her patients.
I am looking forward to our December meeting to see people in person. If you have questions or comments, please contact me by phone, text, or email at 720.300.0973 or sheila-clark@comcast.net .
