Several quilters decided to get together and make chemotherapy caps 6 of them made 41 caps in one day! They were made aware that some folks not only need to travel to Kelowna for therapy, but also need to purchase these caps/hats. So they thought they would make some!!! Fabric was donated and quilters & seamstresses got on board to help. The resulting caps are available free, in sizes small, medium & large; for men, women & children, available at Granny's Quilting Retreat, call Eleanor 378-3734.
