Community Quilts

Join Us Every Monday

The Community Quilts group meets every Monday at Nativity Lutheran Church, located at the corner of SE Knott and Brosterhaus in Bend, from 9:30 AM to 1:30 PM. Everyone is welcome — you can stay for the whole time or just pick up materials to work on at home. We have about 30 people attending each week.

Fabric Donations

 We gratefully accept 100% cotton fabric yardage (not scraps), completed quilt tops, and orphan blocks. Bring donations to Nativity Lutheran Church any Monday from 9:30 to 1:30. For larger donations, contact Tarn Stevens at mtgirltarn@icloud.com to arrange a pickup.

Long-Arm Quilting

 Volunteer long-arm quilters are available to help finish your quilts. Contact Joyce Andrew at jhandrew@hotmail.com for assistance.
