About MUC Patchworkers
This group has been meeting monthly for over 15 years and have made many quilts that were donated to people in need, as well as given to charity groups for distribution.
Over the years they have become a caring group of women, supporting each other through many of life’s challenges while diligently working together to produce their quilts.
Average age of the members is now over 80 years.
Both quilts are made from top quality fabrics with the batting made of wool. This makes the quilts both warm and light to use. The patchworkers trust you will love and enjoy these beautiful quilts as much as they have loved and enjoyed constructing them.
