FAWCO Foundation Friendship Quilts

Every year since 1995, FAWCO members throughout the world have contributed their creativity and sewing talents to the FAWCO Friendship Quilt. This international collaboration has resulted in a unique collection of stunning handmade quilts. The greatly coveted finished product is raffled each year at the FAWCO annual conference in order to raise money for The Foundation's programs and charitable causes. 

It's time to start preparing the next Friendship Quilt "Celebrating Tradition" for Morocco. Mosaics tiles in brilliant colors will be our inspiration. Please read the instructions for more details. 

The Beautiful 2010 Quilt for Boston was won by Shannon Copely, daughter of FAUSA President Louise Greeley Copely!

The Quilt team enlisted an impartial judge from a Connecticut Welcome Center to pull the winning ticket after the conference. This year's Friendship Quilt, Tea Trade, raised over $4,000 for Foundation programs. Thank you to all who contributed, and to the quilters who built this work of art quilt piece by piece.
