Each year the Grand Quilt Guild supports a number of charitable organizations in the community, most often through the donation of quilts and quilted items made by members.
On Oct. 26, at a meeting of the Elora Legion, the Grand Quilt Guild made a presentation of 12 bed and lap quilts and a wheelchair bag for distribution by that Legion to local veterans.
The guild is currently planning its first ever quilt show to celebrate its 15th anniversary.
That show will take place June 8 and 9 at the St. James Anglican Church in Fergus.
The show will display quilted work by membership and will also highlight and describe the guild’s support for charitable organizations and groups within the community.
For anyone seeking more information about the guild and its events, particularly about the quilt show, questions may be directed to Quilt Show co-ordinator, Sue Foard at 519-846-5877.
