The Quilt: A Breast Cancer Support Project

brought one of their four quilt shows to Kingston from August 3rd to 10th, 2006, at La-Z-Boy. The quilts can also be seen and some purchased via an online auction. Funds from the sale of these quilts provide free outreach programs for physical and emotional support for those with breast cancer.
The Quilt of Belonging Several KHQ members help stitch this quilt together in the home of a friend just outside Kingston. Read about our story here. This is an unbelievable Canadian Quilt that is 120ft long and 10.5 feet high! Look for our pictures working on the quilt under "The Quilt/Photo Gallery/Making the Quilt". If you get a chance to see this quilt, do it! The needlework is amazing!
