Sew Loved Quilts on Display June 11 in the Rice Village parish hall

The congregation is invited to view a collection of Sew Loved Quilts on Sunday, June 11, in the Parish Hall. Sew Loved Quilters formed in February 2023 with the help of grants from the CTK Foundation and Thrivent, as well as personal donations of in-kind materials and a phenomenal treasure trove of donated fabric and batting. Some of the

quilters are very experienced; others have never before put together a quilt. The quilts are machine quilted or tied, not hand quilted like the archival quality quilts that Piecemakers create each year. Each quilt will be given to someone facing difficult life challenges, including new immigrants, foster children going to a new home, people undergoing medical treatment, domestic abuse victims, and elderly vets.

If you think you might like to learn how to make a quilt or help someone else to do so or if you just want more information, please contact Gretchen Miertschin, gnmier@swbell.net. This is a very casually organized group that is becoming a very tight-knit community as we reach out to others with the gifts we have been given.
