Local Charity
Sit & Sew Fidget Quilts
At each AQS QuiltWeek event, the American Quilter's Society partners with a local charity. This year AQS, the Racing Fingers Quilt Guild, and quilters attending the show will be making fidget quilts for Alzheimer's patients. Look for the Sit & Sew Fidget Quilts booth in the Exhibit Hall and stop to sew a small 20–24" quilt that will be donated to a local patient with Alzheimer's. They are made from a variety of fabrics to create texture. Embellishments like ribbons, cords, buttons, pompoms, empty spools, and other items are added to create a "touchy-feely" quilt. All supplies and sewing machines are provided. We can make a difference!
Quilts of Valor
Stop at the Quilts of Valor booth #1329 to learn more about the Quilts of Valor Foundation, whose mission is to cover service members and veterans touched by war with comforting and healing Quilts of Valor.
K9 Quilts of Honor
Law enforcement and military war dogs are honored though the K9 Quilts of Honor® program. Quilts are presented to the K9 handlers in honor of their dog’s servicing in our communities and country after a lifetime of service when the K9 retires or dies in the line of duty. Stop by the K9 Quilts of Honor booth #1614 for more information about this program.
