LDS Church Quilting Bee for Kosovo refugees (Briefly in Topeka)
The Capital-Journal notes that the LDS Topeka Stake will hold a
second quilting bee for Kosovo refugees on Thursday, August 19th at
the Stake Center. The Sherwood Ward Relief Society is sponsoring the
event to piece and tie single- and double-sized quilts to be given to
refugees returning home.
Everyone is invited to participate, including both novice and
experienced quilters. Participants are encouraged to bring scissors,
sewing machines and qulit frames, and donations of materials are also
welcome. The quilts will be distributed through LDS Humanitarian
Services.
In the LDS tradition, refreshments will be served at the end of the
quilting bee.
