The Ventura Modern Quilt Guild has launched an effort in support of the Thomas Fire Victims. Scott Griffin, VP of Ventura Modern Quilt Guild, has designed a beautiful Perkiomen Valley Block to make as relief for Thomas Fires victims.There is no deadline on block submission, but they would like to get quilts assembled out to the needy folks in January and February as they begin to rebuild. The guild will assemble them into quilts for those in need after this devastating fire. VMQG will be arranging sewing and quilt finishing soon. Visit the VMQG website or email VMQG for more information.
P.S. The Thomas Fire has burned 270,000 acres (an area that more than twice the size of Lake Tahoe) and completely destroyed over 1,000 homes and other buildings; it is only 45% contained. :(

So glad to see there is an effort to help (in a way we know best!) for the victims of the Thomas Fire. I wonder if anything is organized for any of the other fire-ravaged areas, such as the Lilac Fire. Anybody know?
