Soldiers Angels Quilts

Well, our second Soldiers' Angels Workshop went very well. What a productive day our ladies had making quilts for our servicemen deployed overseas. Overall, we have 50 quilts completely done, 13 in progress, and more still to come from people working independently. While we're approaching our goal of 100 quilts, we still have a way to go. It's not too late to put together a quick quilt for the program. Please call Pat at the shop for help, advice or encouragement.

The Area Coordinator for Soldiers' Angels, Leslie Trubiano, stopped by and was amazed at the number of quilts we had finished and in the works. She even sat down and helped to put several together. All of the ladies signed a special Christmas Card to go to the troops as well.

Special thanks go everyone who helped out on Sunday:

• Liz Feitelberg
• Kathy Landers
• Etta Forti
• Karen LeBlanc
• Janet Cochrane
• Joanne Bellofatto and
• Peggy Lee

Thanks for all of your hard work, and all the wonderful homemade desserts and munchies everyone brought in. Good job, everyone!

Soldiers' Angels Workshop No. 1

Well, we had a very productive day today, thanks to a number of ladies who volunteered their time to help put together some quilts to be donated to Soldiers' Angels, which will collect the quilts and distribute them to servicemen in Iraq and Afghanistan this Christmas. Much applause to:

• Dottie Kelly
• Dottie Fitzgerald
• Terry O'Donnell
• Kathy Landers
• Donna Shiner
• Jean Baker and
• Ann Grant

who all did terrific work sewing and piecing and doing whatever needed to be done.

Special thanks to Karen LeBlanc and Joanne Bellofatto who staffed the dreaded layering table and layered a whole bunch of quilts! Good job to everyone!

We have a number of quilts in various stages and will be tallying things up by midweek, so check back later to see how many we are up to.

Thanks again, ladies! Great work!
