MQG Community Outreach Challenge 2026
Aynex has volunteered to lead the charge for our design this year. Her plan is to feature DC as the center of the Medallion quilt and have representation of Virginia and Maryland in the radiating borders. We need YOU to help out with ideas of scenery, landmarks, symbols, monuments that represent Maryland, Virginia, and DC! Please use the document linked below to share your ideas!
If you are interested in helping Aynex with putting together the quilt, please email dcmodquilts@gmail.com and we can connect you!
