Chairman's Challenge Quilts are small projects designed by the chairman or Challenge Committee to encourage a bit of friendly competition and stretch our imaginations. Parameters might include color and size, shape, embellishment and fabric. Deadlines are usually a month or two from the starting date and the challenge sometimes includes prizes.

Blocks & Chairperson's Challenge
Chino Valley Quilters love a good challenge! Blocks and small quilts are fun activities we do each month to learn new patterns and challenge our creativity.
Comfort Quilts
Chino Valley Quilters members have reason to take pride in our Comfort Quilt Block of the Month program, which helps to provide materials for donated Comfort Quilts.
Download patterns and instructions for each month's block. Our volunteer members meet each month to sew quilts that are given to those in need of a little helping hand. Members unable to attend the sew-in usually sew their quilts at home. In 2012, members created and gave away 291 quilts. Some of the organizations who work with the Comfort Quilts program:
