October / November was a wonderful month for the
Peninsula/Sequim Chapter Project Linus
We were on the receiving end of 3 big donations which included much fabric, yarn, threads, needles, lamps
A sewing machine and 189 completed blankets.
Thank you so much for all the support and dedication we receive to help fulfill our mission.
The Fund Raiser that was held with the Gardiner Holiday Bazaar was a lot of fun.
Many blanketeers (Lynn, Joanne, Sharon, Julie, Noreen, Sandy, Pat, Marjorie, Lynda) donated handcrafted items for us to sell and Pat and her daughter Lea manned the tables.
Susie and Charity found a wonderful Santa Clause and sold pictures, Brenda made fabulous Cinnamon Rolls to sell for a breakfast treat and we had homemade Chili and corn bread muffins for lunch. Cheryl took charge of the Raffle items so we had a great day.
There is a long arm set up and as soon as you get your lessons you are welcome to come and use….
Please email Phyllis to confirm times.

Songs dedicated to all my quilting blanketeers
I found this on the web and got a big chuckle out of it. Mavis Rosbach a former Port Angeles resident now in Georgia has a quilting business and this is her song. Her web site is www.quiltbirdstudio.com/
