Every stitch counts… Quilts for the Longest Day began as a simple idea in a local fabric shop in Chapletown and grew into a powerful community movement to support veterans. What started as a single quilt quickly expanded into an ambitious effort to create 80. Surpassing expectations, in 2024 alone, 109 handmade quilts were gifted to veterans. Rooted in collaboration, care, and gratitude, this project has continued to grow as a not-for-profit, delivering comfort and recognition to those who have served with over 126 quilts donated to date. Now, a selection of these quilts are coming to our Community Gallery space in the Old Hall, celebrating both the craftsmanship and the stories behind this remarkable initiative.
