Victoria Quilters Guild -

Our dedicated Baby Quilt Volunteers 2009 are:

Anne Sanderson Barb Strohbach Bea Sinclair Lois Lockley Rayne Garnsey Barbara Horowitz Nan Beall-Fahlman Sherry Richet Sylvia Burghardt Coralie Wallace (Committee Chair)

Victoria Quilters' Guild donates dozens of quilts per year to the neo-natal unit of Victoria General Hospital. In 2008, the committee delivered over 400 quilts to the hospital. These quilts were made by guild members from kits made up by the volunteer committee. Any guild member can sign out quilt bundles to be completed for this worthy cause. The Volunteer committee also sews labels onto the finished quilts at Stitch Days once per month. Donations can be made to babyquilts@victoriaquiltersguild.org

The baby quilts should measure 34-36" wide by 44-46" long. Larger quilts are difficult to place onto the isolets. These quilts will get a lot of washing, therefore, should be well quilted. We use the size of a clenched fist as a quick guide, or no more than 3 1/2 - 4" apart between quilting lines.
