Hi quilting friends,

Our next meeting will be on Monday, August 19, 2024. We will meet in our workroom at KMVT from 10:00 AM until 2:30 PM. Come join us! We will be stopping early to remove the frames and set up tables to sort the quilts for our distribution day on August 20, 2024.

There are no bunk-sized quilts in our supply. If you can help us with a top we can back and batt, that would be great. A size range reminder:

Bunk 60-65″ wide, 82-85″ long.

Four of us are scheduled to go to the Home Arts building on Thursday, August 29, 2024, to promote Community Quilts. We will be taking 4 1/2 inch squares for folks to design a nine patch which we will sew for them. The patches will be sewn together to make a bunk-sized quilt top for delivery to an agency such as Sleep in Heavenly Peace whose volunteers construct bunk beds for kids who need them.

Please bring any items you have completed on Monday, August 19, so that we can include them in our distribution this time.

If you can help us out with adding binding to our completed quilts, you will find many to choose from in our Bind Me box.

We will be meeting in our workroom at KMVT on the following dates (first Wednesday and third Monday each month). Our times are 10:00 AM to 3:30 PM. We look forward to seeing you.

Monday, August 19, 2024 regular day until 2:30 Distribution set-up begins at 2:30
