One more Quilting for a Cause workshop, hosted by 4-H member Ellie Babcock, will be held on Thursday, Nov. 15 (6–8:30 p.m.) at the Lancaster Extension Education Center at 444 Cherrycreek Road, Lincoln. All youth ages 8–18 may attend. Register the Wednesday before by calling 402-441-7180 or emailing kristin.geisert@unl.edu.
Pre-cut quilt top kits will be available and ready to be sewn together. Youth of any sewing skill level are welcome, including those who have never sewn before. Finished quilt tops will then be donated to Quilts for Kids, an organization that gives quilts to ill children in hospitals.
Bring a sewing machine, neutral colored thread, pins and a pair of scissors. A few office sewing machines are available upon request. Donations of cotton quilting fabric and unopened packages of batting are welcome. Questions may be directed to Kristin Geisert.
If you are unable to attend, pre-cut quilt packets are available for pick up at the Extension office to be sewn at home.
