      How you can help
      We have a variety of tasks that are
      required to produce our quilts: 
  • Cut blocks
  • Arrange the blocks into pleasing patterns
  • Sew the blocks together to create the tops 
  • Cut batting to fill the quilts
  • Measure, cut and iron backing for the bottom layer of the quilt
  • Lay out and pin the quilt tops, batting and backs together so that each quilt has a finished look complete with a border 
  • Tie the quilts using yarn—two ties for each big quilt block, one per block for children’s quilts
  • Sew the border with a sewing machine
  • Pack and weigh the quilts for shipping
And, of course, we need someone to make
coffee and clean up afterwards—quilting is a thirsty job, and our 10:00 coffee break provides us with wonderful fellowship. If you’d like to sew at home, you can pick up packages of blocks that need to be sewn together to make tops. We can give you a quick lesson, and you’ll be all set to help!   Drop by any Thursday morning and we’ll tell you what to do to put together the quilt tops.
Please join us anytime.
