Legacy Committee

Princesses Karen P. Hamilton and Shirley Pettaway-Green, Co-Chairs

The Legacy Committee collects quilt related donations made to our guild by the families of our deceased members as well as from the community at large. The committee picks up, transports, and stores the donated items (books, fabrics, patterns, and other craft/quilt/sewing related supplies); and then the committee coordinates with our Feather Princesses Ways and Means Committee and our 2023 Quilt Show Boutique Committee, regarding the disposition/sale, etc. of those items.

Because our guild is sometimes asked by the community to evaluate craft supplies for possible donation to our guild or to another charitable organization, the Legacy Committee serves as a point of contact for community inquiries about possible donations, evaluates those donations, and either retrieves them or refers them to a more suitable organization.

Guidelines

The Legacy Committee will:

  • Evaluate and collect donations from our deceased Feather Princesses families and also from the community.
  • Coordinate with our Ways and Means Committee and our 2023 Quilt Show Boutique Committee, regarding the disposition/sale, etc. of those items for the benefit of our guild.
  • Refer any donations deemed unsuitable or unusable (for our Feather Princesses Applique Guild) to the appropriate agencies.

The Legacy Committee Co-Chairs maintain a list of Tampa Bay area organizations that accept books, fabrics, patterns, and other craft/quilt/sewing related supplies.
