I am in an amazing charity bee called do.Good Stitches and we're looking for a few good quilters to round out the Hope and Faith circles. Quilters are responsible for planning a quilt 2-3 times per year (or however long you remain a quilter - you can always just give it a try!). You share the plan with your circle, and then assemble the blocks and finish the quilt within the next month. Lastly, you ship the finished quilt to Piecing Hope, from where it will go on to an African orphan.
Now, I have only quilted three quilts in my life but I'm willing to give it a go as a quilter in the Hope Circle. The way I figure it, this will help me practice my quilting skills AND I get the added bonus of knowing that I am providing a quilt to a child in need.
If you would like to join us in either the Hope or Faith Circle you can sign up on our Flickr group. I hope to "see" you there!

This sounds like a really neat project. I know I could make 2 blocks, but I don't think I can quilt and bind a quilt in a month. Will you re-post when there are openings for stitchers?
ReplyDeletejust wanted to let you know I will be joining you as a quilter in the Hope Circle. I have no idea where you guys are at in the process right now so you might have to catch me up and tell me all about it!
