Annie Charles: Quilter Extraodinair
The Many Colors and Talents of Annie Charles 
Over the years Annie has become a dear friend. She is honest. She keeps her words. She wants a better life for her children and grandchildren than the life she had. Annie serves people in a quiet way. She is very involved with the Aneth Senior Center and the VFW, because of her husband, Nelson, service with the National Guard. This past year, Grayson Country Quilters has donated 20 quilts to the Aneth Senior Citizens at Annie's request. She has graciously taken pictures of the quilts given to each of the recipients. Recently a group of us have been sewing together and Annie has shared more of her life experiences with us. I deeply admire and respect her and am pleased to call her a friend." Sidney Christensen
Annie Charles is exceptional in this regard, as she uses her talent to create fabric art for family, friends and military veterans. She is an active member of the Grayson Country Quilters even though she has to drive from Montezuma Creek.initial; background-size: initial; line-height: normal; margin-bottom: 0in; text-align: left;">She is an excellent seamstress and shares her talents and friendship.

Annie's talents as a seamstress and quilter has impressed me over the years. She attempts and completes items that I would NEVER do. Besides her beautiful quilts, Annie has made umbrellas, different types of purses, bags, backpacks and just recently stuffed animals. Her work is of such a quality that items from her are excellent! What more can I say?

"I have known Annie for many years now. She’s been a devoted, mother and clever homemaker. She’s an exceptional, seamstress and quilter. She usually adapts or creates her own patterns. Her sewing is meticulous. It’s fun to spend time with Annie and learn about, her life. Her first marriage was an arranged marriage and her husband now is very supportive of her community involvement. She donates many of her quilts to the veterans of World War II and of course to family members." Nancy KimmerleAnnie even makes complicated umbrellas!
