*For speed and symbolism, BLESSED PIECEMAKERS join the layers of the quilts (top, filling & back) with knots of craft thread or yarn. Each knot is tied with prayer. Pieced quilt tops that are tied instead of hand or machine quilted are called “comforters” and that's what we're all about! Gatherings begin and end with prayer. Fabric is chosen, cut and pieced with the friendship and laughter of an old-time quilting bee. A verse of scripture and a the symbol of the cross are sewn into each comforter. Wheel chair and nap size comforters are planned as well as fund-raising quilts for Sierra Pines Church ministries.
Pack your lunch plus your sewing machine and quilting tools (if you have them) and join us twice a month from 10 am to 2 pm. No experience needed. There's plenty for willing hands to do.
Gatherings Dates:
Jan 9 & 19
Feb 6 & 16
Mar 12 & 22
Sierra Pines Church Cafe
