NH Community Quilting Etsy Craft Party
Dover, NH—September 3, 2011-- Janith Bergeron, co-owner of The Sewing Tree in Dover, and Alix Joyal, owner of Mamaka Mills Custom Quilts in Strafford are coordinating The New Hampshire Community Quilting Etsy Party, to take place on September 17 from 3-6pm at the Sewing Tree, located at 66 Third Street in Dover.
This event is in support of Project Linus. Project Linus' two-fold mission is to provide love, a sense of security, warmth and comfort to children who are seriously ill, traumatized, or otherwise in need through the gifts of new, handmade blankets and afghans, lovingly created by volunteer “blanketeers”, and to provide a rewarding and fun service opportunity for interested individuals and groups in local communities, for the benefit of children.
The purpose of this party is to meet fellow crafters and local Etsy.com crafters and to sew quilt squares for Project Linus. This is an opportunity to sew for a great cause, and to learn more about the premier online outlet for hand-crafted goods.
Finished quilts will go to the pediatric units at Wentworth Douglass and Frisbie Memorial Hospitals through the local chapter of Project Linus.
Everything will be provided including sewing machines, tools and supplies. Refreshments and snacks will be served as well.
The New Hampshire Community Quilting Etsy Party will take place on Saturday, September 17 from 3-6pm at The Sewing Tree, located at 66 Third Street, studio #201.
