Comfort & Service Quilt Projects

Kodiak Bear Paw Quilters Guild has been providing Comfort Quilts for over 20 years. These quilts are made by members to be given to those in our community and beyond who might need a comforting hug. Recipients are nominated by someone telling a Guild member, or when a known misfortune has occurred to a family. 
Our Current Service Project is creating quilts for residents of those affected by Typhoon Halong in the Lower Yukon-Kuskokwim River areas. We dipped into our fabric stashes and  dedicated October & November's All-Day-Sewing to this project. By New Year's Day 2026, over 40 quilts have been completed and shipped to Bethel for distribution in the Lower Kuskokwim areas. In the past, 
Guild members have made donation to various one-time projects, such as the 100 pillow cases made for the youth of the Paradise Fire in California to be used as their book bags.

Block of the Month

Each month the guild issues a Block of the Month. The pattern for the blocks is given with a swatch of fabric to start the quilter, who then chooses some pieces from their stash to create one block. The blocks are returned to the next meeting, members who want all the blocks put their name in a "hat". The winning member gets to take them all and create a quilt.
