Locals Use Their Skills To Make Charity Quilts

Twice a year, the Colorado Valley Quilt Guild makes a day of putting their skills, time and creativity together to form beautiful lap quilts. These quilts are then donated to nursing homes in Columbus, La Grange, Weimar, Flatonia and Schulenburg. Most of the fabric is donated to the Guild throughout the year. In 2021, 110 lap quilts were donated and the Guild anticipates exceeding that number this year with over 122 quilts.

The Colorado Valley Quilt Guild meets every fourth Tuesday of the month at the Randolph Recreational Center, 653 E. Pearl in La Grange. The meeting begins at 10 a.m. on odd months and at 6 p.m. on even months. Our meetings are always open to the public, so grab a friend and come learn more about this wonderful service organization right here in La Grange.
