We would like to invite you to join us in the West Room Monday through Sunday, from 8AM to 5PM. This group allows us the room and time to work on individual projects, as well as, group projects. The members of this group are friendly and eager to create. We often get together for lunches, potlucks and games. There will certainly be project classes taught by members. We also carpool together to attend the Road to California Quilt Show in Ontario, California in January. Group projects help the club to raise money and give resources to the Cathedral City Fire Department first responders and to domestic violence victims at Shelter from the Storm. Each year we create beautiful quilts to be raffled off at the Ladies ’ Luncheon held in March. Working together does make a difference to the families of the Coachella Valley. Introducing this year ’ s charity raffle quilts Chicks with Sticks – Quilted Throw Mulligan – Quilted Throw Kaleidoscope Log Cabin – Quilted King Ticket prices are $5 each or five (5) tickets for $20 Come by the West Room to purchase tickets or watch for a pop - up sales table at ORPS events. The ORPS Quilting & Sewing Group create and donate quilts for children. These quilts are disbursed by first responders to children displaced, injured, and/or traumatized. Your support by purchasing raffle tickets helps us purchase the materials needed to make these quilts. The ORPS Quilters & Sewing Group has chosen Shelter From The Storm as a focused charity. We raise money through the ORPS community by creating quilts for raffles and other items to sell at our quilt show. Due to the generosity of the ORPS community we are able to send the shelter approximately $5,000 annually. The ORPS Quilters & Sewing Group also makes pillow cases for the residents of the shelter. We hope it gives them some comfort as well as something they can keep while traveling a journey of uncertainty. We hope to raise awareness to their needs. Simple items such as, diapers, underwear, bras and cleaning supplies are extremely helpful to the residents of the shelter. They are in need of these items in all sizes. If you would like to assist the shelter by donating any of these needed items, please drop them off at the West Room in El Saguaro during sewing hours, Monday through Sunday, 8AM to 5PM. Please keep in mind, all items must be new.
