Event Info: |
A Gathering of Quilts is
a celebration of traditional and modern quilting. Located in the
Charlotte Harbor Event Center, 75 Taylor St, on the downtown waterfront
of Punta Gorda, the event features vendors, a basket raffle, a boutique
full of handmade items for purchase, demonstrations and a book signing
by Carla Klop, classes by Bobbie Burquist of
www.quilterstreasure.com
and an opportunity for all attendees to stitch a pillow case that will
be donated to Ryan’s Cases for Smiles. All of these activities are
highlighted by a display of 200 or more handmade quilts that have been
judged by a nationally certified quilt judge. Some of the display quilts
are hung together in themed groups. There will be a grouping of small
quilts that are created around children’s books and another grouping of
Americana-themed quilts celebrating our country’s 250th anniversary. On
Saturday at 11 am there will be a Quilt of Valor presentation. Four (4)
veterans w ill be honored each with a quilt in honor of their service.
It is a beautiful and moving presentation. This event is sponsored by
Disconnected Piecers Quilt Guild of Port Charlotte, a non-profit (501c3)
organization that donates hundreds of quilts each year to Head Start,
Hospice, and C.A.R.E. We do Quilts of Valor presentations a few times
each year to honor local veterans. We also donate pillows and fidget
mats to hospice and bedding to the SPCA. Your support of this event
helps to make the continuation of those donations possible. Snacks and
beverages are available at the concession stand. Children may find this
event a bit restrictive. |
