Quilts of Valor - Louise Grant & Lydia Stewart

​2023-2024 Quilts of Valor 

​

The 2024 Quilts of Valor block is now available below, right.  It's the Special Ohio Star Block.  All members are asked to help us make more quilts for the coming year by making a block or two.  These can be given to Louise Grant at any meeting.  Please bring in just the blocks.  The QOV quilt group will put the stars together into quilts.  Thank you for your giving hearts! Producing Quilts of Valor is an ongoing process. Piecing blocks, tops, quilting tops, binding, labels, and washing completed quilts are tasks for which volunteers are needed!  Please contact Louise Grant if you are willing to do any task.

Machine Quilters needed!

We have several quilt tops to match with machine quilters!  Please contact Louise Grant (lpgrant100@comcast.net) if you are willing to take a top this coming month.

                                                                                                                    

We need to increase our supply of presentation cases.  I am attaching the instructions here.  A case                          

takes a total of 1 yard of material, usually 3/4 + 1/4 contrast.  If you are interested in doing one or                             

two, let me know and I'll get material to you!  Instructions are below.

 Thank you again for your interest and willingness to participate!

The Guild has voted to host a November 2024 QOV Presentation.  A call for nominations for that

presentation will go out in June and be accepted through September 30, 2024. However, the QOV

Committee will accept nominations at any time and coordinate individual presentations with the                   (Nomination Form)

nominator at alternate locations and times.  Please use the nomination form and mail to the Guild

PO Box address. (on Home Page) Please read the criteria for nominations and make sure the form

is filled out in its entirety.  Incomplete forms will be returned.  Nominees will be contacted in

advance to ensure the recipient is willing to accept a QOV and has never received one previously.  

 

The guild hosted a Quilt of Valor Presentation at our November 1st, 2023 meeting.  21 Quilts were given to veterans.  For 2024 the nominations will be accepted any time prior to the end of September 2024.

 

Individual presentations can be scheduled separately in collaboration with the QOV Committee.
