Reaching out

It is very important for our guild to be involved with outreach programs and this year Iessie went to the Bloem Show management and asked if they would sponsor entrance tickets for 5 girls from a local Satellite home.

Iessie then asked members of our guild to add financially by giving these girls a little spending money and received approximately R100 per child.  The girls were very impressed with the quilts on display and will in future be taken to the CUT twice a month to be taught by volunteers from our guild to sew and cut in preparation of our National Quilt Festival in 2013.
