Gaston County Extension & Community Association

A gentleman came by our Gaston County ECA center and asked if he could donate these quilt tops his wife had created. Eileen and Ann said “absolutely yes”. Eileen took the quilt tops to her home and after washing, and spraying and washing again for several times, here are the beautiful quilt tops cleaned and ready to be quilted! We do not know the names of the folks, but he did tell them his wife had passed before she could finish them! The workmanship of the tops is top quality!

Cathy crocheted this beautiful baby blanket she is donating to Least of These Carolina! She is so very talented!

Gaston County ECA members show off their block of the month! Aren’t they beautiful and just look at the array of colors for the same pattern! Cathy, Cynthia, Gina, Rhonda, and Tania are pros at selecting color coordinating fabric.
