Announcing our May 2019 Anniversary Party

The Petunia City Quilters will meet at 7:00 p.m. May 6th at the
First Presbyterian Church
110 East Third Street
Dixon, Illinois
for their 30th Anniversary Celebration.

Help us celebrate our 30 years as a quilt guild. The guild was formed on April 11, 1989 with 14 members. Six charter members are still active in our club today.

Cake served at the first anniversary meeting, April 1990.

May meeting open to the public!
We look forward to seeing you – details:

Please join us for a program by Phil Lewis, author and historian, called “The Underground Railroad: Fact or Fiction”.
This program is free and open to the public.
Refreshments will be served following the presentation.

Lewis is an Illinois Historian and a volunteer at Lincoln’s Presidential Library in Springfield. He has researched quilts of the Underground Railroad and will cover the facts and fantasies of the stories. His wife, Jeri, will show handcrafted quilts to go along with her husband’s historical findings.

We will also have some of the quilts made for our October auction on display.

Our charity project for 2019 is making pillowcases for the new PADS center (for homeless women) in Dixon and our collection (so far) will be on display as well.
