Outreach!
Wayside Quilting Guild members come together to make quilts to donate. We also work independently to do the same! Here are some of the quilts that have been donated recently !
Past Outreach Sessions
|
We gather twice a year to make quilts for those in need. These are fun days full of learning and laughter. It is a great event for getting to know people better and introducing crafty friends to the guild.
You don't have to attend a sewing day in order to donate a quilt. If you make one at home, bring it to the next guild meeting and give it to Susan or Lu Linda, the Outreach Co-Chairs.
If you would like to suggest a charity to support or have materials to donate, you can reach the Outreach Chairs at outreach@waysidequilters.org |

Spreading Love One Quilt at a Time - Click to read about previous years' donations.
On the 3rd Saturday of the month (unless otherwise noted), we get together virtually for Sew Happy, our take on the classic sewing circle. It's a chance to enjoy each other's company, share tips, and get help when we're stuck. Most people bring their current quilt, but mending and knitting have been seen there too.

Caring Heart Pillows
Caring Heart Pillows are made and kept on hand for giving to members during difficult times - usually involving illness or bereavement. If you would like to make one at home, or know one someone in the guild who might need one, please contact Marianne Hatton or Jane Harris for a kit or instructions. We usually devote our February meeting to making these pillows together, weather permitting.
A Well Traveled Quilt
In early 2017 the guild received an email regarding one of our outreach quilts.
