  Group donates quilts for first babies
  Old Uniontown Quilters Guild met Tuesday, Jan. 23 at Christ United Methodist Church. Co-president Chris Herron presided over the business meeting. Treasurer Marilyn Knapp reported on the group's raffle quilt proceeds, which will be donated to the local domestic violence shelter.
  Two quilts were donated to Samaritan Hospital for the first two babies born in 2007. At least four groups from the guild are working on quilts to be presented to Hospice of North Central Ohio.
  An update was given on the guild's quilt show, July 6 and 7, at Park Street Brethren Church Family Life Center.
  Cindy Doggett of Country Charm Fabrics will give an all-day class for guild members Feb. 6 at the church. A "brown-bag" project was explained and will be completed by participants for display at the quilt show. Thank-you gift was presented to outgoing past president Pat Waldron.
  Members showed completed projects and Melva Campbell and Cindy Rohn presented a make-it, take-it program, featuring a framed quilt project. Members then had the opportunity to construct their own quilted pieces.
  A quilt-in will be 1 to 4 p.m. Feb. 14 at Christ United Methodist Church with Betty Wilson demonstrating hand appliqué techniques. The next evening meeting will be 7 p.m. Feb. 27 at the church featuring a program on useful quilting tools. Guests are welcome.
