Is there anyone that can take over the coordinator position for the chapter? My life has taken a 360 turn since taking it over last October. I want to do the organization justice and I currently can’t do that.

We are going to have to postpone our blanket making day scheduled for this Saturday due to a lot of our members being sick. I will let everyone know of the new plans ASAP

I have found my replacement!! Meet Lynn Sistrunk. She met with Patty at the National office today. I met with her on 9/30. I will be supporting her for as long as she needs me, but y’all give her a big welcome and be on the look out for big things from her. She is going to be amazing in this role.

It's time to start getting ready for the Mystery Quilt Challenge Preparations, here's a valuable tip that you really need to put on your "to-do" list BEFORE you begin tackling the assignment you will be given on the Preparation Page.
This year is different...as I have said... Once you register for the Mystery Quilt Challenge (registration opens on Monday, August 21 on our www.projectlinus.org website), you will be given a password entry to the Clues. The first download will be a Preparation Page pdf where you will be given a BIG assignment to complete before the first clue is revealed on September 23rd. The Preparation Page will give you ALL the details so you'll want to download that ASAP, once you register and receive your password.

Project Linus provides handmade blankets to children 0-18 in the United States who are seriously ill, traumatized, or otherwise in need.

The Challenge portion consists of weekly “clues” revealed over several weeks to challenge registrants. Each clue is a PDF document to download and print, and contains very detailed instructions, diagrams, and even templates to make a segment of the mystery quilt.

Clues are accompanied by online videos demonstrating step-by-step how to make them. Videos also feature many tips and tricks for use in the challenge as well as other quilting projects.

All weekly clue segments are then assembled into a beautiful child- or youth-sized quilt.
