We LOVE volunteers! Whether you're a quilter, knitter, crocheter, or none of the above, we need YOU to help get our new chapter up and running. If you have a heart for bringing comfort and security to children in need in our area through handmade blankets, please consider becoming a blanketeer!
At our monthly meetings we have need for non-crafty people as well! Quality control includes looking over the blankets for leftover pins, stray threads, and overall construction. After our Project Linus tags have been sewn on, we organize the blankets by age/size and bag them for distribution. We truly have a volunteer position for anyone - whether you sew, knit, crochet, or none of the above!
We'll also happily take donations of the following:
Fabric - New child-friendly colors, 100% cotton, cotton/polyblends, flannel, fleece
Batting - New cotton, polyester, cotton/poly blends, low loft
Yarn - New washable, child-friendly colors, acrylic, soft yarns (NOT WOOL)
Rotary cutter replacement blades - size 45mm
Lint rollers
Gift Cards - Hobby Lobby, JoAnn's, Wal-Mart, etc.
Donations of materials can be brought to our monthly meetings before 10:30am.
