Community Outreach (CORE) Quilt Patterns
Do you feel the need to serve someone in your life but don't think you can reach   very far from within your own walls? THINK AGAIN! Find out how fulfilling a bit of giving of yourself can be, even to someone you do not know - someone you may never meet. You can brighten up the world of a child, an adult, or a senior! Join us in this wonderful cause and reach out to the community.

Please help by making one block of 15 squares, or four blocks, or 9
blocks, or a quilt top, or a completed quilt. All contributions will be welcomed! Hand your block in to Community Outreach at the October meeting.

Just for Fun is another quilt pattern you can make. It is available free from Quilt Maker Magazine. Click here to see and print the pattern.

This easy pattern is a great way to use your scraps. The sashing gives it balance.

CORE Project
 

Community Outreach (CORE) will be donating quilts to children who are in the
care of Peel Children’s Aid Society. Often the children come into care
wearing their only possessions. They are on a journey they cannot control with no idea where it will lead them. With this in mind, we offered Peel Children’s Aid donations of quilts for these children. The response has been overwhelmingly positive in support of this project. The Social Workers feel that the quilts will provide practical benefits, both tangible and intangible, to a group of children who have had more than their fair share of hardships in their short lives.

If you can’t wait for the October Guild meeting to take and make a supplied kit, please make the block, or blocks, or the quilt top, or the completed quilt, and bring them to the Guild meeting. Drop them off at the CORE table. It takes 16 blocks to make a snuggle quilt.

CORE volunteers will take them home and make completer quilts by adding donated, matching fabrics for the sashing, batting, binding, and blocks. The kits will be taken to the following Guild meeting. Guild members can then take them home, sew the quilt tops and return them at the next meeting.

Note: Use your theme fabrics for the center square, especially those that children and teens would enjoy.
