Announcing a new Meetup for Simply Sustainable, Inc.!
What: Sew-free blankets When: Wednesday, February 10, 2010 4:30 PM Where: Patricia 10173 Manada Road Phelan, CA 92371 760-887-1145 I am an activities day leader with some children from my church and we are working on sew-free blankets for them and a senior citizen's home (belated Valentine's day project) for February 17. If you are interested in learning how to make these blankets I am doing an optional class day this Wednesday from 4:30pm - 6:30pm at my home in Phelan. The concept for these blankets is that we are taking two blankets (felt material), one solid color and one patterned and using a technique where we are not tying them together on the edges, but pulling them through a hole. I am putting picture directions together for those of you who are interested, but aren't able to attend, in making them at home. I was able to get the blankets recently on sale at Anna's Linen for $2.99/each, so the entire project excluding a few pieces of yarn for $6.00 + tax. They make great projects to sell or wonderful bedspreads and/or warm, cozy lap blankets and/or shawls. This is a free activity as you will only learn how to make the product and then have the option to purchase the items on your own. 10173 Manada Road Phelan, CA Go north on Wilson Ranch Road (signal light) Turn right on Acacia (red barn on corner), very bumpy road At the dead end (Manada Road) turn left After you cross the intersection we are the second house on the right Yellow/White manufactured home with an American flag flying in the front yard There are no street signs for Manada, so be sure to carry my phone number with you.
