Grandma to Grandma Campaign quilt at the library in Red Deer

The Grandma to Grandma groups across Canada cooperated last year to create an art quilt to celebrate the transformative support provided to our partners - Grandmothers in Africa.  It is titled The Sheltering Tree and visually represents the support of the grandmothers and the initiative they have taken to create a protected place for themselves and their grand children to grow and become their best selves.  The supplies were gathered from the groups including fabric and embellishments.  Our Gramma Link Africa group provided leaves for the tree.  It is very beautiful!!!  It is touring the country and being hosted by Grandma groups across the country.   These ladies did a splendid job of organizing our turn of hosting the quilt.  There was a reception on October 5th and it will be at the library until the end of the month when it will be sent along to the Canmore group.  Therese
