 Share the Warmth: Quilts that make a difference Saturday, Oct 4 from 9:00am-6:00pm & Sunday Oct 5 12:00am-5:00pm Join our staff in volunteering your time to create simple tied quilts for the local area organizations in need. No experience required. If you or your group, guild or bee are interested, please register at the cash desk or drop in anytime during this three day event. A few hours of your time will help make this event a great success. The Dartmouth & Greenwood Atlantic Fabrics will have the classrooms set up for this 3 day event. In Bridgewater we’ll be at the Bridgewater Fire Hall, Dominion St. and in New Glasgow we’ll be at the 1st Baptist Church across the street from Shoppers Drug Mart on East River Rd. We hope to surpass last year’s total of over 300 quilts, which are now enjoyed at over 14 shelters across Nova Scotia. We have collectively created over 2000 quilts in the past 6 years. Donations of fabric, baby/crib panels, quilts and quilt tops will also be gladly accepted. *fabric donations must be: new, cotton, poly/cotton or flannelette - all fabrics should be pre-washed. All batting, backing, thread, floss will be provided by Atlantic Fabrics. For more info or to register contact the Atlantic Fabrics near you. Dartmouth 434-7220 Greenwood 765-0600
