The mission of Quilts of Honor is to bestow a universal symbol and token of thanks, solace, and remembrance to those who serve in harm’s way to protect and defend our lives and freedoms. Quilts of Honor are made by the loving hands of countless volunteers who wish to thank those who have served so that they know their sacrifices are appreciated.
We hope you will join us to honor members of our active military and veterans by showing them how much we appreciate their sacrifice and service with our “Quilted Hugs of Gratitude.” Our hope is that these quilts will provide comfort, love and healing to those who have given so much.
The most important message our brave men and women can hear from their fellow Americans are “We Care” and “Thank you for your sacrifice and service.”
How can you help? NotJustQuiltZ and Color Me Quilts coordinate the Niles chapter of Quilts of Honor. Both are drop-off points for red, white and blue fabric, completed quilt tops, and completed quilts. Or you can come in on special “Quilts of Honor” quilting days to help put together kits, quilt tops, pillow cases, bind quilts, put on labels, etc. Check our calendar frequently to see when we’re having a sew day or call either NotJustQuiltZ at 510-797-6579 or Color Me Quilts at 510-494-9940 to leave your name and number for us to call you when we are planning our next sew day. Everyone can help.
Check out our Gallery of New Arrivals! – Come see our newest line of unique fabrics. These marbled cotton fabrics from Quilting Treasures are wonderful! We bought 8 different colors so you would have a wide variety to choose from. And, rather than pay high prices for the hand-marbled fabrics that you see at the quilt shows, these fabrics are $12.95 per yard on good quality cotton. Check them out.
