Those sisters who are called to make quilt tops have been busy and active as ever and have done a fantastic job. We are so grateful for their time and talents in crafting these beautiful quilt tops. We have an abundance of quilts ready to be tied. At this point, we mostly need volunteers to come help tie! It's a lot of fun to sit and chat with other women doing such meaningful work. Even if you know nothing about quilting, you can be taught how to tie a quilt in just a few minutes, and can be a great addition to our team! Please feel free to come Tuesdays and help us tie our piles of gorgeous quilts!
We are so grateful to sisters who help donate fabric that make our quilts possible. Recently, a special thanks to Sharon Stablein from the Lake Holm Ward, Sandy Knebel from the Puyallup Stake, and Linda Anderson from the Game Farm Ward for their donations of beautiful quilting fabric! It will be put to good use and bless the lives of many people! (Reminder also that Fred Meyer has their sale on sheets this week!)
Game Farm Ward has been hosting this month, and Mill Pond Ward begins in November! Thanks for past and present volunteers with help setting up and taking down. It's only possible with those like you! Our new hosting schedule is ready for 2017! Copies are ready on Tuesday at the church for pick up.
The last day of our humanitarian service for the year is Tuesday November 15th, and we have a special treat! We are having a potluck lunch that day with Life Center NorthWest joining us. We will be making our last donation of Donor Quilts to them and enjoying their company. If you can, please bring a main dish and salad or dessert to share! We will resume our normal schedule on Tuesday, January 10th, 2017 at 10am.
Whether you have time, talent, or funds, there is something for you to help us with! We can always use material donations, financial donations (through the paper tithing slip, under "Other", write "Sew Much Love Humanitarian Auburn Stake") or the time and talents of those wonderful women who come and serve with us at home and each Tuesday. A huge thank you for all those who have helped to move this work along this fall!
We hope to see you all Tuesday!
