Website

If you haven't checked the website out lately, please DO!!!! Monthly newsletters are added regularly. The photos have been updated with ones from the Fall 2010 meeting. There is lots of good information, links to our recipient organizations and much much more. Tom Eckhardt has done a great job in getting all this information in an easily accessible format. It has saved me hours of time emailing people info. Now I just direct them to the website. THANKS TOM!!! www.projectlinuseasttn.org

Quilters Stuff!

Quilters: Check out this website. Lots of neat stuff. Checkout the Quick Points Rules under Tools and Rulers (click in box on left of web page). I was really impressed with these at the quilt show in Knoxville this summer. http://www.popsbindings.com/ - Deb

Quilt Jewelry

I bought some of these pins/earrings at the Knoxville quilt show last summer and again this summer. The colors are vibrant and quality good. A great idea for a Christmas present for or from a quilter. http://quiltedinclay.com/ - Deb

Linus Blanket from Urban Outfitters

The Linus Blanket is once again available! A portion of the sale of each blanket goes to Project Linus. The blanket is VERY soft and VERY cuddly!

Holiday Blanket Drop-off Break


Please have all blankets dropped off for the year by Saturday, November 13th. Blankets should NOT be dropped again at our drop-off locations until Monday, January 3rd. This provides room at our drop-off facilities for extra collections and projects they have going on over the holidays. Thank you.
