​​Compassion Sewing 2023
Please continue to work on your compassion projects.  You may turn these in at the guild meetings. 
Our main priorities for the rest of the year are:
  1. Meals on Wheels - So far we have collected 182 placemats.  We committed to 250 to MOW  by the beginning of December.  We are also accepting any lap quilts for MOW if you are interested in sewing these. 
  2. Coweta Pregnancy Center - We are continuing to collect Baby quilts, burp cloths and bibs.  You may turn them in at the guild meetings once completed.  We have turned in to date 51-Baby Quilts / 17-Baby Bibs / 75-Burp Cloths.
  3. Vet Quilts - We are winding down the Vet Quilt program for this year. 19 quilts have been completed. For those that still have Vet quilt tops to be completed, please bring to the guild meetings once completed.  
If you are able to quilt any of these projects prior to turning in, please do so.  Or, if you are willing to help quilt those turned in, please let Deb know.
Guild members have also turned in 65 breast pillows, 35 lap quilts, 8 fidget quilts and 5 Teddy Bears.
As always, thank you all for supporting our guild's community service activities. Your generosity is appreciated. 


Your Compassion Team,
Jo Dennin & Deb Sweeney
