Houston Modern Quilt Guild Charity Happenings
The Houston Modern Quilt Guild proudly supports outreach into the community. Countless hours go in to the organization and construction of charity quilts; not to mention the yards and yards of fabric that has been donated. Thank you to all our members and sponsors who continue to support our charitable endeavors.

Charity Challenge-May 2022
We are back in person, so that means charity block challenges are back! For the next two months, we will be sewing as many of @SewBrainy's (Jamie Siel) Cornered blocks as we can from the MQG Block Study Series-December 2020.
Go for BRIGHTS for the corners and low volume, or solid white for the background.
For every 2 blocks turned in, you will receive one raffle ticket. We will draw to see who wins the raffle to take them home to do something FABULOUS with them. And 1/2 the blocks will be sewn into wonderful charity projects.
Click the picture to the RIGHT to take you directly to the pattern. It's part of our MQG membership, so dive in, and we can't wait to see what you create for May.
