We attended our second Project Linus meeting yesterday. We had six of our members (Amy, Diane, Martha, Susan, Mom, and me) and we had a great time. We tacked quilts and learned about more of the things that Project Linus does. We also learned about a new program they have where you earn charms for a charm bracelet by making blankets, quilts, cutting material, etc. We also saw some of the most adorable quilts during show and tell.
We donated the rest of our blankets for 2011 and they showed several of them during show and tell. There were many positive comments on our beautiful blankets and borders. I think they like the "extra touch." I returned with more free fleece. I have enough to make 30 blankets. You may pick it up at the November meeting. We are finished with turning in blankets until January, so don't worry about bringing anything back to me until then.
I think we have many reasons to be proud of our group. 109 to be exact. That is how many blankets we made and donated this year. Twenty went to the nursing homes and the rest went to Project Linus. What a great year!!
We plan on attending the December meeting also. They meet on the second Thursday of the month around 9:30 or 10:00 in the morning. They serve lunch. In December everyone brings "finger foods," so if you plan to attend, you will need to bring a finger food.
We also need to decide at our November meeting (this Thursday, the 17th) where we want to have our December dinner. Hope to see you Thursday.
