2024 Quilts of Valor National Sew Day Saturday, February 3rd 10 am – 4pm
The 2024 Quilts of Valor National Sew Day will be Saturday February 3, 2024. This annual event has quilters around the world all sewing on one day to demonstrate our love of country and to say thanks to our service members and veterans. Last year over 6,000 quilters participated and nearly 900 quilt tops were completed. There are national prizes – selected randomly from registered quilters and we will have local prizes too. Bring your favorite covered dish and join in the day long festivities. 10am – 4pm at St. Lawrence Catholic Church – IN THE GYM. God Bless America

Membership in the Quilts of Valor has lots of benefits for only $5.00 per year when you join a group. There are monthly specials from Industry Partners; free downloads of patterns and Longarmer pantographs, thread discounts – something new is added every month. Please consider joining – attending our monthly local Sew Day is not required. Maybe you live too far away to “join another group or have another meeting”. Not a problem – sew at home when you can and turn in your quilt top to us. We will provide the batting and backing, plus get one of our volunteer longarmers to quilt the top for you. ALL THIS IS COVERED WITH YOUR $5.00 YEARLY MEMBERSHIP. What a bargain!!!!!!
