“ Quilting and sewing is a way to express ourselves through our craft. People are excited to see and receive the things we create, even if they don ’ t always understand how much was poured into the making. One important thing is that our quilts will outlive us by generations. They are out there in the world, beautifully sharing our hearts and our art. We are grateful for each project we have created, and we look forward to creations yet to come. On February 18th, 2023, ORPS Quilters and Sewers will be hosting our Annual Quilt Show in the ES Owner ’ s Lounge. We invite you all to come by between 10AM - 2PM to see the amazing things created by our group. We were unable to hold this event the past two seasons, so we are excited to again share our creations with all of you. Besides the works on display, there will be items for sale. Come vote for your favorites and stop for a cup of coffee and a cookie. We are also selling raffle tickets for three beautiful quilts that will raise funds for our chosen charity, Shelter From the Storm, the only domestic violence shelter in the Coachella Valley. Please look for pop up ticket sales at events in the resort or stop by the ES West Room anytime between 9AM - 5PM to purchase tickets. The winners will be chosen at the Ladies Luncheon on March 1, 2023. Additionally, the shelter needs donations. Your generous donations of toys, under garments, socks, cleaning supplies, diapers, wipes, etc., are welcome. These items will go a long way in the feeling of kindness from others during a very difficult time in the lives of these families. We will accept donations for the shelter all season, every season. Please bring them by the West Room or drop them in the playpen located in the El Saguaro entryway. ” This year ’ s charity raffle quilts Chicks with Sticks – Quilted Throw Mulligan – Quilted Throw Kaleidoscope Log Cabin – Quilted King Ticket prices are $5.00 each or five (5) tickets for $20.00
