11th Annual Blanket Making Party & Potluck
<p>Yo<span style="font-size: 14px;">u are encouraged to bring some NEW fleece to help make blankets with. The minimum is 1.5 yards per piece and you need TWO pieces. Please have them pre-cut. Typically a solid colored bottom piece and a matching fun print for the top. These blankets go for all age ranges so any design is welcome. The only thing that's not allowed is that super cozy soft fleece - it makes a mess when cutting. The best type is called "no pill". You can find fleece at Walmart, JoAnn Fabrics, Hobby Lobby, Michaels, lots of places! Some even have kits you can purchase. </span></p><p><span style="font-size: 14px;">Come in whatever you're comfortable, PJs, whatever! Bring a snack to share if you're able, a pair of scissors if you can (we'll label them so you get them back if they get moved around), a bring a friend or four! Food might not be labeled so if you have allergies, be responsible for your own food allergies and don't eat anything you're not sure the ingredients of. It's a potluck!</span></p><p>Project Linus is a nationally recognized non-profit with a local chapter that serves Cedar Rapids, Iowa City, and Waterloo area. All of the blankets are handmade and stay here locally to children in need. They go to different facilities and hospitals like four oaks, shelters, University of Iowa children's hospital, Ronald McDonald House, Covenant and Waterloo etc.</p><p><span style="font-size: 14px;">Any and all NEW handmade blankets are welcome however, because the fleece tie blankets are easy to make, that is what this event focuses on. </span></p><p>Any questions? Just ask! I am beyond grateful to be back in this welcoming warm space at Salem United Methodist Church and can't wait to see you all again!</p> 2023-11-03 03:00:00 -0500
