Giving Tuesday - Virtual Quilting Bee

Wow, Giving Tuesday is fast approaching.   It is the Tuesday after Thanksgiving, which is December 3rd this year.  

Giving Tuesday was started as a counter to all the consumer madness of the holidays with Black Friday and Cyber Monday.   Giving Tuesday is about giving back, not buying.   Helping others, not getting into fist fights in the stores.

So for this year's Giving Tuesday, we are going to have a virtual quilting bee.   Everyone join me to work on a quilt* to give to a worthy organization.   Not sure of the final set up, might just be a post with us interacting in the comments.   This will be all day, so drop in when you can.

What to do to get ready for the Bee:

Decide what you want to make.   Feel free to ask for help in the comments.
Get your supplies together.
Plan on showing up.

The day of the Bee:
Join us.
Comment/interact.
Work on your project
Have FUN


As always, you can also donate on that day to the organizations on the right.   I will come up with a special block for all those who donate that day.  

Let me know in the comments if you plan to attend.   This is not a written in blood committment (unless your rotary cutter slips or you stab yourself with a needle).   If you can't make it, no biggie.   Plan to be here next year.   But the more the merrier.   Even if you just want to show up to give moral support, your participation will be welcomed.




*Quilted/sewn toy, knitted/crocheted blanket or preemie cap.   Not being real strict here.
