Hello Blanketeers,
We have two Blanket Making days in October:
OSLC – October 7th – 10:00 am - 2:00 pm
Riverton Senior Center – 9:30 am - noon
Join us for all or part of these blanket making days. Bring in finished blankets or stay and make fringe edged fleece blankets for kids.
MORE FUND RAISING ADVENTURES
My husband Dean and I set up a sale of used jewelry at the Sunday flea market held at Brighton ski resort. The jewelry was donated by friends who found they had no reason to keep items that they no longer wore or enjoyed. The plan was to raise money for purchase of fabric and supplies. We sold a lot – but we are still in the business.
So…feel free to call me if you have jewelry you never wear and don’t need to keep anymore.
Boutique Event – OSLC
The next used jewelry sale will be part of the November 9th Boutique at Our Saviour’s Church. Lots of Christmas items will be available there just in time for Christmas shopping. Mark your calendars and be sure to stop by between 9:00 am to 5:00 pm
This event will feature:
Vendor’s booths - Craft items - Rummage sale - Soup lunches - Bake sale - Jewelry - & Games.
Thank-you note received from Royal Family Kids Camp #049. PL – (all of you) – donated 50 twin size quilts to their camp this August.
WELCOME BABY
This program is a privately funded charity that distributes packages of baby items to those who qualify for help. The packages have onesies, baby clothes and other items for the new born. We will be adding a little PL blanket to their kits starting next month.
Country Crossing Ward
Candace Gittens, together the women of Country Crossing Ward, made 26 fringe blankets last month. Patsy and I enjoyed their company and especially appreciated the care they took to learn the Salt Lake County PL pattern.
Remember to tell anyone who is planning to do a blanket-making project to check with Chapter Coordinators first. This will insure the blankets are made to specifications and that they meet our requirements for quality. We are very proud of the beautiful blankets we give to kids.
