Grange work for Project Linus is ongoing!

The Grange is continuing to produce handmade quilts for Project Linus! Project Linus provides quilts made with love for children in stressful or traumatic situations.

We meet every other month, on the odd numbered months, on the 4th Monday of the month.  Judy (our Chaplin) buys the fleece and the Grange reimburses her.

We make no-sew quilts. We take two identically sized and shaped pieces of fleece , line them up back to back, cut fringe around all four sides, and then tie the fringe together, making a blanket.  It’s then sent to Project Linus, a national non-profit that provides hand made new blankets such as ours to children in traumatic situations.

Folks do not need to be Grange members to participate. We need more tools to make these blankets such as mat, scissors, rotary cutter, clear ruler, guide.  If you come and you have any of these tools, it would be great if you could bring them. For more information please email chaplin@sallalgrange.org or cwa@sallalgrange.org
