About the event
Our scrap basket is overflowing and it's time to turn them into beautiful scrappy blankets to donate to Journey Home. Journey Home is a local organization finding innovative solutions to end homelessness in Hartford. We are excited to be partnering again with them on this project! This year there are even more ways to help out!
OCTOBER 3RD - 17TH
PHASE 1: SORTING AND PRESSING SCRAPS (help out at home!)
All the scraps we use in quilts are sorted by color family and pressed flat. This can take a lot of time! We need volunteers to pick up bags of scraps, sort and press at home and return the scraps to the studio within the time frame.
