Each year the Piecemakers provide over 100 quilts to the Tomball Veterans Administration, the Houston Ronald McDonald House, and the Gathering,an organization to support Alzheimers patients and their caretakers.
You can join our charity program by adding your first name to our quilt label for only $10. (Our label says "May this quilt wrap you in God's love.") You may sponsor as many quilts as you want.
The Piecemakers use these sponsorship proceeds to buy supplies for next year's charity quilts. Thank you for your support.
The Piecemakers are a quilting ministry of Klein United Methodist Church (KUMC). We are not all Methodists nor do we all attend this church - but we are women in the community who quilt or who are interested in learning this art. We are friends joined together in this fellowship to celebrate "the joy of quilting" and each other. Our membership includes experienced quilters, new quilters, and all of those in-between. Members may work on their own projects or charity kits. However, we reserve the 4th and 5th Tuesdays of each month for our charity quilting.
Mission Statement
The Piecemakers formed in 1996 to:
-
Promote and encourage the appreciation of the quilting arts
-
Foster charitable endeavors
-
Provide a forum for quilters and quilt lovers to share and explore their quilting interests
-
Educate others in the art of quilting and its place in our community
-
Foster Christian beliefs within our quilting fellowship and our community
Meetings are held every Tuesday from
10am-3pm in Room 406
