First Friday with Crown of Maine Quilters
Friday, January 07, 2022, 06:00pm - 08:00pm
Wintergreen will feature the craftwork of the Crown of Maine Quilters and friends in January. The opening reception for their exhibit, “Sew” much fun, will be held January 7, from 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM, during Presque Isle’s First Friday Art Walk.
The Crown of Maine Quilters’ guild has been together for over 30 years. The group currently has 42 members.
“As a guild, we get together once a month at the Aroostook Centre Mall,” said Sue Skidgell, guild president.
“Our quilts go to family and friends,” Skidgell added. “As a guild we make quilts for patients at Northern Light Dialysis in Presque Isle and have participated in St. Apollonia Dental Clinic’s Festival of Trees.”
Crown of Maine Quilters’ guild members have also donated pillowcases, quilts for the first baby born in the New Year at Northern Light A. R. Gould Hospital and Cary Medical Center, as well as items for the Presque Isle Rehab & Nursing Center, to name just a few.
“We’ve heard of the good work of the Crown of Maine Quilters’ guild for years,” said Gretchen Violette, Wintergreen’s board chair. “We are honored to display their work and learn more about the people, patients, and lives they touch.”
Refreshments will be served with live music provided by Janice Santos. The event is free and open to the public.
Crown of Maine Quilters members come from across central Aroostook County. Sue Skidgell, guild president, currently resides in Mapleton with her husband Geoffrey.
