A Community Service block pattern is printed in each newsletter (every two months / six per year). * Kits containing one or more of the fabrics to be used in the block are handed out at our monthly meetings. * Members complete one or more kits adding their own fabrics * The blocks are returned to the Block Chairman who puts them together creatively. * Other volunteers layer, quilt and bind the quilts * They are displayed at the annual Quilt Show and then donated.
