A big Thank You to all our members who so generously donated to the Living Hope Church’s Food Pantry!! Caring for others is what we do in many ways!

Last Tuesday Crossroads had a fun, entertaining night of games! Quilting/sewing Trivia was led by Judy N., Twenty Questions with M&Ms led by Anne C. And a games of Left, Right, Center completed the enjoyable night.
Sorry we don’t have pictures of the games but we do have our Show & Tell pictures of the beautiful work of our members.

Crossroads Quilters Guild is very proud and humbled that a quilt we created continues to show our love and care to Veterans!!! It was created in 2019 and was displayed/ used by the Beverly Veterans’ Office over the years but today it is at Ford Hood, Texas! Our quilt was gifted to the Third Cavalry Division along with the awesome Guidon which was found in Hamilton. The Guidon was created in the early 1800’s and is back home where it began its journey. Both were gifted at the Memorial Ceremony this past weekend at Warriors’ Weekend in Beverly. The pictures below are our quilt, Guidon ….guild members Liz Crean, Becky Hartley, Beverly Veteran’s Director Davud Perinchief and Sargeant Major Billy Hendrix of Fort Hood, Texas.

Wishing everyone, veterans and families a relaxing, wonderful Memorial Day Weekend!!

Wonderful Sit & Sew time today!! Lovely weather and great conversation!! We were working on binding a quilt, , knitting, and cross stitch projects. Come and join us next Tuesday!!

At our retreat we all sewed 4 1/2” squares of various fabrics that we left over from our auction. No one bought these so we began making 5 square strips. Putting them together on the design board showed us it could be a pretty quilt….or perhaps table runners….or what else??? This is a first step…..

Smiles and sewists at work!!
