NORWAY -- The Saintly Stitchers Quilt Guild of Norway displayed their work for all to see this past weekend.

On Saturday the guild displayed roughly 140 quilts at the Evangelical Covenant Church. The guild holds the show every other year to help raise money for charity. By showcasing their work, the guild hopes to attract new members into their group.

"We're trying to get younger people into the guild," said Pam Treiber of the Quilt Guild. "We do have several older ladies, a couple younger ladies have met, but it gives them a nice hobby. If you're riding in the car, instead of texting, you could be doing some handwork."
