THANKS

We would like to thank Kathy for her 7 years as coordinator of the El Paso Chapter. She has done a Super job.
Many times beyond the call of duty.

We welcome Annette as our new coordinator. She and her committee will ensure that our Chapter continues to
supply blankets to those who need them.

For information, contact Annette at 474-2845 or email: twooters@elp.rr.com
Our next meeting will be Saturday February 6th at 9:30 a.m.
 
Meetings:

El Paso Project Linus meets the first Saturday of each month (except December) at University Presbyterian Church,
244 Resler Drive in West El Paso.

Our meetings start at 9:30 A.M. and are usually finished by noon.

We work on blankets at the meeting as well as share ideas, teach techniques and skills. Bring whatever blanket project you are working on. If you're a quilter bring your machine and usual supplies. If you knit or crochet, bring your project along. If you want to learn to make blankets for Project Linus, we can teach you.

Newcomers are always welcome.
