Guild members have always been generous in turning their talents to charitable causes. Contributions of Cuddle Quilts, Preemie Quilts, Bravery Bead bags and for the IWK Pillow Project are welcome.

Cuddle Quilt Guidelines:

Donations of Cuddle Quilts are welcome throughout the year. However, each spring, the Guild hosts Cuddle Quilt Day to bring together Guild members and the community to prepare quilts for donation.

IWK Pillowcase Project – Instructions:

There is an ongoing call for pillowcases for patients at the IWK. Here are the Guidelines.

Bravery Bead bags – Instructions:

Patients at the IWK Children’s Hospital receive beads representing treatments and milestones throughout their illness. Over 200 bags have been donated by N.S. quilters to date. The pattern is easy to follow and arrangements will be made to gather new donations in the coming months.
