Charity – Doll Quilts for Crosslines with the Ozark Piecemakers Quilt Guild

At each AQS QuiltWeek event, the American Quilter's Society partners with a local charity. This year, AQS, the Ozark Piecemakers Quilt Guild, and quilters attending the show will be making Doll Quilts that will be donated to Crosslines, an organization that supports families during the holidays and throughout the year with a variety of assistance programs. Look for the Sit N Sew Charity booth #1719 in the exhibit hall and stop to sew a block or two. All supplies and sewing machines are provided. We can make a difference!
