Opportunity Quilt
- The Santa Rosa Quilt Guild Proudly Presents
2024-2025 Opportunity Quilt
"Lucy Boston"
Our stunning “Lucy Boston Quilt” was made by one of our members, Sue Gragg with help from Kathy Rathbun, Barbara Southard, Vivian Valencia and Elizabeth McDonnell. It is called the “Lucy Boston Quilt” in honor of the designer and is hand-sewn English paper pieced. It was machine quilted by another member, Betty Upchurch.
Our quilt will be on display at the Sonoma County Fair August 1 – 11, along with an opportunity to buy tickets for the raffle through April 4, 2025. Other locations where tickets can be bought include Bolt Fabric in Cloverdale and Village Fabrics in Santa Rosa.
The Santa Rosa Quilt Guild is dedicated to the preservation of our country's quilting heritage through the education and enhancement of quilt making skills. Our members share a love of quilting and all things quilt related. We welcome those who have similar interests. In over 40 years, we have grown from a small goup of founding members to approximately 250 today. The guild is a non-profit organization with a broad outreach program. Members, individually and in groups make quilts of all sizes for community members in need of comfort.
