The Peaks ‘n Pines Quilt Guild will host its 10th annual quilt show July 10-11 at the Grand Lake Community Center.
The group is 60 members strong and strives to promote the art of quilting for all ages. The guild also undertakes numerous charitable projects, including making quilted holiday and everyday placemats and lap quilts for residents at the Cliffview Assisted Living Center.
The guild also quilts for the Mountain Family Christmas Project, which fills wish lists with each family member receiving a quilt. The guild also supplies baby quilts for VROOM.
Through Quilts of Valor, the guild covers Grand County service members and veterans with comforting and healing quilts. Through Quilts of Valor, 23 quilts have been distributed since 2019, and 11 more are ready to be distributed.
The guild also offers a scholarship for Grand County students and welcome home bags for guild members who were affected by the East Troublesome Fire.
