Our guild has grown to more than 200 members. Can we also grow our community giving? We hope so! We donate finished quilts to the Durham County Foster Program, who assists kids from infants to 21 years old.
We hope every guild member can join our efforts. Our committee can be contacted at communitygiving@trianglemqg.org.
How can you help?
- Donate a finished quilt! Quilts should be at least 40″ x 50″ (throw sized) and up to 70″ x 90″ (twin sized). We ask that quilts be new or stored. We cannot accept antique or well worn quilts.
- Hand off a top to be quilted! Have a top, backing and binding ready to go? The committee will coordinate with several wonderful longarmers – Meghan @apieceofquietquilts, Stacy @overthemoonquilts, and Amy @sewmindfulstudios – who have volunteered their time!
- Sew with us! You can contribute by making blocks or joining a community sew day to assemble quilts from donated blocks. We aim to have at least 4 get togethers a year.
- Take a kit of donated fabric! We have many packs of fabric curated from donations ready to be made into something amazing.
- Donate! We welcome donations of batting, binding and/or quilt backs.
Please take a moment and fill in this interest survey!
Some helpful info:
- We are always looking for more gender neutral patterns that teenagers would like.
- You can donate any time! Bring to a guild meeting, or email us for pickup/dropoff with one of the committee members.
- Quilts do not have to be “modern” – there are no requirements about style. Remember, we’re making for kids all the way up to 21!
