| JULY GRAND DOOR PRIZES – $275 VALUE! |

|
| How can I win one of these you ask??? A special Big Door Prize ticket will be given to each person for every 10 items that you donate at The Big Stitch July 14. You will choose which Big Door Prize drawing you would like to enter, knit or crochet. Sorry, dishcloths and granny squares* will not be included in this special drawing. We are looking for hats (we need everything except baby hats unless the are going with a blanket) baby blankets, lapghans, afghans, scarves, car seat blankets (no preemie items needed at this time). We get such a HUGE request for hats in the winter that this is what we need the most. Neutral colors are best. Chemo hats too. Granny square sets* will still be accepted as well as dishcloths, but they won’t be eligible for this special drawing.
*
Granny squares will be accepted if 5 sets of at least 9 squares are turned in.

CAN YOU HELP ?
|
 
We have 500 knitted squares that need a crochet edge put around them so they can be crocheted together to make blankets.
Can you help? There will be some available at The Big Stitch.
We have a group that can put them together after the edging is applied.

 Join us on Saturday, August 11 from 11am – 1 pm at the Bellevue Library, 720 Baugh Road, 37221. All supplies will be there! The plarn we make from plastic bags will be used to crochet mats for the homeless. If you want to learn how to crochet the mats please bring a hook size N or larger. Questions?
