October Newsletter


 October 2015

Welcome Fall Blanketeers,

It’s that time of year for warm days and cool nights, along with Fall cleaning, please keep NWPA Project Linus in mind with material and yarn. We can always use pieces and parts to make colorful blankets for the kids.

Here again are the Quilt Shoppe’s and Blanketeers that are drop off locations for our Chapter. I often receive calls requesting this information. We are very grateful for all the time and help these Store’s and individuals donate to NWPA Project Linus.

ODDS & ENDS:
 Due to a recent influx of larger size blankets our need at this time is the small and baby sizes – 36 X 36.             36 X 40, 40 X 60.
As always, we need all sizes all of the times, but if you are inclined to make the baby or smaller blankets, we would appreciate it.
