With a big thank you to Gary and Jan Darwin, owners of PM Quilting in Casa Grande, the Material Girls have been busy making quilts for comfort and charity with the many large bags of fabric strips donated by our local quilt shop. Members participate in what we lovingly call “Saturday Stripping” including cutting, sewing, squaring up the blocks and a “Finish it up Friday” to sew the final quilt top together. Completed quilts are then donated to the Pinal Advocacy Center, Cancer Treatment Center, Eloy Senior Apartments, the Eloy Police Department and our fellow Robson Ranch residents with life threatening health issues and spouses of those deceased.
But wait, that’s not all! Members enjoy spending time together working on their own projects, sewing, quilting and machine embroidering for themselves, family and friends. If you like to do or think you might want to do/learn any of these fun crafts and enjoy time learning and sharing with others, please join us in the sewing studio at the Creative Arts Center any Monday, Wednesday, and Friday from 9:00 a.m.–3:00 p.m. For more information, stop by the studio or contact one of the following members: Donna Payne 815-488-6861, Robin Tisinger 520-423-2623 or Patty Folly 503-804-6260.
