I belong to
a small quilt guild, High Desert Community Quilters, that sews for charities in our local community. We meet on the second Saturday of the
month and sew, quilt, talk (and eat).

That's my foot on the right. I was busy doing the "talking" part. |
We make
quilts and small gifts for two organizations (and a few others but these are the
main ones) Quilts of Valor and Gift of Love. Many of you are already familiar
with Quilts of Valor, an organization that gives quilts to our Military Veterans.
Gift of Love is a program which donates quilts (and a TON of other stuff) to victims
of domestic violence through the San Bernardino Sherriff’s Department. I feel
so honored and blessed to work with the fantastic people who give so much of
themselves to help others.
