Come to our quilt show!


Come to the Gig Harbor Quilt Show!
 
Friday and Saturday, Oct. 18-19
10 a.m. - 5 p.m.
 
United Methodist Church
7400 Pioneer Way, Gig Harbor
 
Admission: Free


Today we hung quilts from our Gig Harbor Quilters guild for a show that opens tomorrow. In addition to our guild, there will be charity quilts from Pieces of Love, quilts made by inmates at the Washington Correctional Center for Women, quilts from the Gig Harbor Quilt Festival, which raises money to fight breast cancer, and Comfort Quilts made for local cancer patients.


Many hands made light work, and in less than 2 1/2 hours we cleared out all the chairs and tables from the large meeting room, assembled quilt racks and hung every quilt that was submitted.

Opportunity quilt to raise funds to help fight breast cancer.

When we stepped outside to leave, this is what greeted us: A nearly full moon in a dusty pale rose sky.



Have a colorful day
