NEWS FROM THE FAITH VIERA QUILTERS

QUILTING COLOR MAGIC                    PRAYER BEARS

2008 Habitat Quilt PresentationPresentation of our 2008 Habitat for Humanity quilt to Avianve

     We have started our third Habitat for Humanity quilt, using an antique quilt pattern called Shoo Fly done in beautiful donated fabrics.  It is amazing what you can do with fabric samples from decorator stores in scrap quilting patterns

    We continue to work on small quilts for the Pregnancy Center as well as Quillows for foster children.  Patterns are available as well as some fabrics.  You may choose to use your own patterns and fabrics.  The baby quilts should be no larger than 36 x 44 inches and preferably backed with Polar Fleece which keep them light weight rather than the traditional batting and backing.

PRAYER BEAR PROJECT

     Hi, I am a Prayer Bear.  The Art & Quilting Workshop has been asked to consider making these adorable friends for hospitalized and ill children. They take very little time and are so-o-o-o appreciated.

     Come and learn how to put these little Polar Fleece bears together and enjoy the fellowship of caring people who like to sew.  This can also be an "at home" project for those who can not come to our meetings.  If you have about an hour and a half to share and are interested in this project, call Mary Campbell at 727-3827 for details
