Community Service
Guild members have been active in Community Service since 1987.
More than 1000 quilts and placemats have been created and donated
over the years. The Guild currently provides quilts and placemats
to local non-profit organizations including Girls' Ranch, Kitchen
Angels, New Mexico School for the Dear, La Luz, LaFarge Library,
Villa Teresa, Esperanza, Rape Crisis Center, Viva Familia, Mentor
Moms, New Vistas, La Otra Puerta, Gerard's House, and Foster
Parents programs through NM Department of Children, Youth, and
Families in Espanola and Santa Fe. Guild members also participate
actively in Project Linus, sponsored by Janome through the Sewing
Center of Santa Fe.
The
Community Service committee welcomes donations pieced tops, and
100% cotton quilting fabric that is at least 1/4 yard
in size (9" by 44" or 18" x 22"). Guild members
share in the work of basting, quilting, and binding quilts for
distribution. Our most needed quilt size is 40 x 60 inches in
fabrics themed for juveniles, teens, and middle-aged women, but
we accept new handmade quilts in all sizes.
Right: A stack of quilts is a testament to the hard work by
the Community Service quilters!
