The story for Piecemaker Quilters began in 1997 when the founder, Kay Putnam, organized the quilting ministry at the First Baptist Church of Mount Dora. Kay’s gifts and talents for making quilts, coupled with her dedication to sharing God’s love to people who needed quilts, led to the growing number of quilters. Who continues the quilting ministry today.

Currently, Piecemakers Quilters, under the leadership of Jan Allen and Peggy Smith, has grown to a quilting ministry, which includes quilters from sister churches in Lake County. Through quilting, we have built lasting friendships. Hundreds of beautifully crafted quilts have been sent to local, state, and international organizations, including to people in Ukraine, Haiti, Cuba, Venezuela, Honduras, Brazil, Native Americans in North Dakota and Arizona, Lake County Linus Project, and Mount Dora Habitat for Humanity.
