Lila Mae's House - Presenter Sister Shirley
January 13, 2020
Sister Shirley did a short presentation on the new Lila Mae's House: A Place of Healing that has opened in Sioux City. She talked about the very real problem of human trafficking in Siouxland, she requested our Guild make a beautiful quilt for them to auction at their 2021 fund raiser next January.
The mission of the Lila Mae's House is to provide a safe, healthy environment where adult survivors of sex trafficking can rest, heal, recover and develop life skills to become empowered, independent and self-sufficient women.
Veteran's Day: Quilts of Valor
Jan Cook of the Twisted Sisters Sewing Group was the Master of Ceremony for the presentations of the Quilts of Valor. The beautiful quilts were created and quilted by members of the Siouxland Samplers Quilt Guild and given to ten of the members of our guild who are Veterans. We honored them Monday night with lovely quilts and our thanks for their service to our country.
Ann Crawford of the Quilts of Valor Foundation presented each quilt recipient with a QOV certificate.
The mission of the Quilts of Valor Foundation is to cover service members and veterans touched by war with comforting and healing Quilts of Valo
