COASTAL PRAIRIE QUILT
GUILD OF TEXAS
QUILTS FROM
THE HEART
Our "Quilts from the Heart" Sew-In on April 19, 2012,  was a huge success.  There were 30
awesome ladies who volunteered to stay after the meeting to help with charity quilts.  My
heart was touched by the zeal that was shown as we laughed, worked, and met new
acquaintances together.  It was fun and productive.  Our goal is to finish up the tops that
final count.

HOW CAN YOU CONTINUE TO HELP?????--- "Quilts from the Heart???"

We accept monetary donations.  There are two resources we have that we can purchase
fabric for $1.75-$2.00 a yard.  Our fabrics are basically donated and our stash is low.  So if
you choose to give in this way--let me know and I will see that you get a tax deductible
receipt from Barbara Baxter----  OR---if you have yardage, usable scraps, scrap and yards
of batting, orphan blocks, rotary cutters, mats, etc.---any supplies you know we can use--
let me know.  We are still taking your "snippets " that we are using for an Animal Shelter
project.

Do you have a supply of bandanas you can donate??   We will gladly take them for an
upcoming project.
I have several sets of Bo's Place if you are interested.
Save Hobbs UPC codes--we can use them to purchase discounted batting.

If you have taken kits home and just cannot get them finished.  NO PROBLEM--we
understand--just bring them back and we will put them back in the rotation.  Our goal is to
make and donate at least 250 quilts and projects this year.  Also--thanks for returning
completed projects in a timely fashion.  I will give you an official count in the next
newsletter.
