About Firehouse Quilts

We make and donate 45" square snuggle quilts to fire departments all over the state of Colorado. We have begun making twin sized quilts for battered women's shelters too. Any style or patterns can be used in the donated quilts.

Volunteers from Firehouse Quilts meet twice a month at the Northridge Rec Center, 8801 S Broadway in the Wetterhorn Room and welcome anyone that likes to sew/quilt for a great cause.

1st Tuesdays, we sew from 4:30pm - 8pm and the
3rd Thursdays, we sew from 12:30pm - 4:30pm .
Bring your machine!
