Konza Prairie Quilters' Guild

Log in


The Konza Prairie Quilters' Guild and the Prairie Star Quilt Guild partnered to form the Kansas Prairie Quilts of Valor.

The mission of Quilts of Valor is to cover service members and veterans touched by war with a comforting and healing Quilt of Valor.

A Quilt of Valor is...
From the beginning, founder Catherine Roberts had definite ideas about standards of excellence for Quilts of Valor. "I knew a QOV had to be a quality-made quilt, not a 'charity quilt.' A QOV had to be quilted, not tied, which meant hand or machine quilting.  I would be 'awarded,' not just passed out like magazines or videos, and would say unequivocally, 'Thank you for your service, sacrifice, and valor in serving our nation.'"

You are welcome to join our local group at an annual cost of $10 to sew, engage, and award Quilts of Valor.

How can you help? 
1. You can make blocks, bind, longarm quilt, make refreshments, attend award ceremonies, put on labels, donate red, white, and blue fabric, and many other tasks as we grow.  

2.  Donate: 
      a. Red, white, and blue 100% cotton fabric
      b. Financial support: Donate at a guild meeting or go to the national Quilts of Valor website at https://www.qovf.org/. Click on the Donate tab, and contribute to our local group by inserting 89865 in the search tab.

3.  You can nominate a veteran to be recognized with a Quilt of Valor. For more information and nomination forms, please click here.
