Visit the 12th annual Peaks ‘n Pines Quilt Show to experience the artistry and creativity of quilts, watch quilts being made, learn more about the organization’s Quilts of Valor program, and bring home some beautiful, hand-crafted works of art.

The Peaks ‘n Pines Quilt Guild will be hosting their show on August 5-6 from 10 a.m. to 4pm. The quilt show will be held at the Grand Lake Center Commons at 301 Marina Drive.

The show is free to the public. In addition to viewing and voting on their favorite quilts, attendees can also purchase, unique hand-crafted items.

The Peaks ‘n Pines Quilt Guild is a nonprofit organization dedicated to the art of quilting that emphasizes educational programs, community-building and supporting local families through homemade quilts. The guild provides quilts to the Mountain Family Center for their yearly holiday program, plus their Grand Seniors program and Vroom program for new mothers.

The guild supports the national Quilts of Valor program, which provides quilts to veterans. As part of Quilts of Valor, over 90 quilts have been presented to Grand County Veterans whose service ranged from World War II through current-day hostilities. The guild supports Grand County Advocates in providing quilts to families in need.

Peaks ‘n Pines also works closely with Cliffview Assisted Living Residence in Kremmling. Over the last few years, the guild has provided lap quilts for all the residents as well as hand-made placemats and table runners to celebrate the seasons and holidays.

Lastly, Peaks ‘n Pines Quilt Guild provides scholarships to local students pursuing studies in the textile arts. This year, three students were awarded scholarships.
