Hi Quilters,
We will meet from 10:00 until 4:00 on Wednesday, May 4, 2022, in the KMVT work room. Drop by for an hour or two, or for the day. Knock hard on the door, so we know you are there.
We appreciate everyone who delivered quilts during our Distribution Day. Here’s a list of the agencies we delivered to: CASA, CSI Refugee Center, East End Providers, Community Action (for Empty Bowls), Health and Welfare, NorthStar, Sage Women’s Center, St. Luke’s (Cancer Center and Pediatrics), Twin Falls School District, Valley House, and Voices Against Violence. Each Distribution Day we call the list of agencies we have delivered to in the past years. We ask them about their wants and needs; then, we try our best to fulfill the list. We are always open to new agencies. We added NorthStar for this distribution.
We have lots of new floral fabric that would make beautiful spring-themed quilts. Our children’s print box is overflowing as is our panels box. Panel quilts are really easy to make: pick a panel and border it in a size that is usable. There you are! Plus, Carolyn Connelly has made a board filled with ideas about creating a quilt. It has lots of pictures. Check it out.
We will be tying quilts on Monday as well. There is always a need for nimble fingers to help us get quilts on the way. Long arm quilters are welcomed as well. Then, the quilt binders can work their magic!
We have received more donations. Last week, we received the first part of a storage unit filled with boxes of fabric from Jamie. There will be more.
Here is the schedule for the days we will be meeting at KMVT through June:
Wednesday, May 4, and Monday, May 16
Wednesday June 1, and Monday, June 20
