Chapter Reports: Superstition Mountain Quilters (MALs)
The Superstition Mountain Quilters at MountainBrook in Gold Canyon AZ have been very busy this year creating lots of items for our local charities. We made 53 quilts and 92 pillowcases which were donated to the Hope Women's Center and CAAFA (Community Alliance Against Family Abuse). Also, this year we made 39 placemats to be distributed by Meals on Wheels for their Thanksgiving meal distribution. We are a small group with big hearts. We love quilting and feel that through our donations we are spreading this love and bringing comfort to those who need it most.
