Community Service Update - November 2026

Author: Judi C., Chair Community Service

Quilts of Valour (QOV) Canada is hoping for 350-400 quilts to present to the armed forces personnel who were injured and traumatized in the Wainwright Base fire. The EDQG members have contributed 10 so far and several more are in progress.

QOV needs funds for backing and QOV labels. E-transfer information can be found on the QOV Canada website.

EDQG members were able to present 17 quilts to the Veterans House, a new apartment building for veterans. Lois M. toured the facility and was very impressed. 

Blankets of Love is asking for quilts for families of armed forces personnel who were injured in the Wainwright fire. Lap size quilts or twin size.

 

We will continue to meet on the second Tuesday of the month at the Focus on Fibre Arts Association (FFAA) Studio at 10554 - 110 Street NW.
Use the back door.
9:30-4:00pm

The next sew days are:

  • Tuesday, November 10
  • Tuesday, December 8
  • Tuesday, January 12
