Project Linus Take-Home Kits

Hello Guild Members!

Thanks to our generous Blanketeers, I have dozens of pre-cut Quilt Kits for our next Sew Day! More than we could manage in a single event, as a matter of fact!

I’m going to bring some Quilt Kits to the March meeting. If you’d like to take home a project, feel free to grab one!

I would like to have all kits returned by the April 10 meeting, or at least by the end of April. My mother is a long-armer who volunteers to complete the quilt tops, and she is planning a trip to Savannah this spring.

If you complete a Quilt Kit, consider making a small donation of $5 – $10 to Project Linus to help offset the costs of finishing the quilts (batting, thread, backing fabric).

Thank you all for your support!

P.S. Now that our beloved Sew Much More is closing, I’ve lost another drop-off site for Project Linus. If anyone knows of a local business that would like to be a collaborator, let me know!

I’m not able to partner with large businesses like Michael’s or Hobby Lobby unless they collaborate with Project Linus as a corporation. Chapters can partner with small businesses and organizations, even if they’re not necessarily craft-oriented, as long as they are open to the public, can store bags of blankets on-site, and have regular hours. Ideally they should have accessible parking as well.

Let me know if you have any leads!
