SOCIAL OUTREACH MISSION NEWS  

Quilting

Our quilt group is like the game “Tag, you’re IT!”  First step: people cut squares from fabric.  These squares range in sizes of 6″, 8″, 10″, and 12″.  Second step: the squares go to our people who arrange them into the beautiful tops they will become.  Third step: they then go to our people that sew the tops together.  Fourth step: the sewn tops go to our people that sandwich the batting, backing, and top together and pin them.  Fifth step: the pinned sandwiched quilts then go to our sewers who sew them together. The pins are removed and quilt is turned right side out and top stitched around edges to complete.  Final step: the sewn quilt goes to our people that tie them together.  Then, voila! we have finished quilts. 

The quilt squares can be sewn at home and brought in for the rest of process. Or it can be done at church. We have extra sewing machines!  Not only do these finished quilts go to LWR, Project Linus, or Bridgeway.  We are now selling them too.  See our table display!  (Sew) we can always use more hands, minds, and skills to make this ministry happen.  Come join us.  TAG – You’re IT!  We meet on the 2nd and 4th Tuesdays of each month from 9 am to noon in the Quadrooms.
