Let's make our community a better place!
We are proudly affiliated with the national Quilts of Valor Foundation®.
To learn more about the national Quilts of Valor Foundation® visit QOVF.org
We are a small group of dedicated quilters in the Bay Area area known as Silicon Valley Quilts of Valor®.
At the present time, Silicon Valley QOV covers veterans in Santa Clara County and San Mateo County
We meet regularly to make quilts for service members and veterans who have been "touched by war".
Veterans and active duty military from any conflict, who have been "touched by war", merit a healing and comforting quilt called a Quilt of Valor®.
We present these quilts called QOVs in appreciation and to honor for their service to our country.
National QOV Sew Day is 2/1/25.

Are you passionate about what we're doing?
Let us know!
We are always looking for volunteers to help us make our vision a reality.
We'll help you find a way to volunteer that best suits you.
We're excited to have you join the team!
Since 2014, Silicon Valley QOV has annually awarded over 125 Quilts of Valor.
The presentation of quilts to veterans is a very rewarding and moving experience. Often veterans are surprised and overwhelmed when they are presented with a quilt made by hand and offered as
a tactile thank-you for their service to our country. This can be a moving experience for the quilter as well as the veteran.
Whether you help through monetary donations, volunteering your time, or spreading our mission through word-of-mouth, we thank you.
We couldn't accomplish our goals without the help of generous supporters like you.
Please donate to us today!
Quilts of Valor® are awarded freely to veterans “touched by war”. However, Silicon Valley QOV does need community support to meet the growing demand for quilts in our region.
Please consider directly donating to Silicon Valley QOV via the QR Code using your credit card. Your donation will be processed by the Foundation, and placed into our local account. This ensures localized funding support. Or we welcome your checks too!
We are now actively fundraising to raise funds in order to continue covering veterans in the counties of: San Mateo and Santa Clara.
We are also seeking a donation of a computerized Longarm Quilting Machine.
