Project Linus of East Tennessee is BACK at Twisted Sisters

Saturday, October 7th – 10 AM – 3 PM

Location: Twisted Sisters Quilt Shop at 424 Marilyn Lane Alcoa, TN 3770. 

Come ready to sew and/or learn more about Project Linus.

We will have a demonstration of a block by block quilt as you go technique. If you have scraps to use for this, please bring them. You will need 6″ blocks for the top, 8″ blocks for the back and 6″ blocks for batting. 64-6″ square blocks, 64-8″ square blocks and 64-6″ square pieces of batting will make a nice size top. Or just bring a few to practice. You can use scraps for this quilt top.

• An Open House at Twisted Sisters where you can talk  to the Project Linus of East TN coordinator, Deb Miller, and other volunteers to learn more about Project Linus. Examples of Project Linus blankets will be available to help stir your creative juices.

• Come quilt/sew for the day – to ensure a space, please call Twisted Sisters (865-980-0950) or stop by to reserve your space.  You just need to bring your machine, sewing supplies and a selection of thread. Space is limited

•  Quilt kits will be available for purchase.

• Just want to help but only have an hour or so to spend with us? We will have blankets that need labels sewn on. Bring your thimble!

• Attention Knitters and Crocheters: We haven’t forgotten you. Bring your latest Project Linus projects and join the fun.

• Do you have quilt tops to finish to donate to Project Linus and can’t quilt them? Drop them off and we will get one of our long arm quilters to finish them. Please provide backing and binding if possible.
