Veterans Project

Veterans Quilt Presentation

Last Thursday at our sew-in, we presented quilts to 10 Veterans. They were all so impressed and appreciative of the gift and recognition of their military service. Thanks to all of you who played a part in making this happen!

We will not be meeting in April, since many of us will be at the Guild Retreat.

Come and sew with us on Thursday, May 28, from 9:00 am to 2:00 pm at the Siletz Grange. We will be having another presentation at 2:00 pm on that day.

In case you weren’t sure what a “Porch Drop” is, here are a few photos of our crew delivering quilts to deserving veterans in spite of the pandemic.  Everyone stays safe and we can brighten someone’s day, as well as our own.

Three years ago our quilt guild decided we would like to honor and thank all of the veterans that we could by giving them a quilt.  We believe that all veterans are deserving no matter where or when they served.  So far we have given out more than 100 quilts, but we know there are many more veterans out there who deserve a quilt.

In November we gave away 10 quilts to veterans from the Longview Hills Fishing Club.
