BOLT-TO-BED
(Covid Style) UPDATE A Community Service Event
Heads up Everyone!! The January 26, 2022 meeting will be Bolt to Bed! For those new to MVQG, Bolt to Bed is a day set aside for making comfort quilts. It is a wonderfully fun event. We start at 9:30am and go until we stop! Usually around 8:00pm.
Due to the increase in Covid cases and the new variant, we will not meet in person. Nonetheless, the Board of Directors wants to move forward with Bolt to Bed, so we will be sewing in our own homes while coming together virtually. This will be a repeat of what we did last year so hopefully all will go smoothly.
Changes due to COVID
First of all, Comfort Quilt Kits will be available for pick up at the Scottish Rite Center on Tuesday, January 25 from 11:00am - 1:00pm. We have over 80 kits available to choose from. We also have panels available if you want to choose one of those. Along with the kits and panels, backing and batting will be available for pick up as well. We will set up two tables, to comply with social distancing guidelines. In addition, mask wearing is required during pick up.
We are going to meet virtually via ZOOM. A link will be sent out in an email, prior to the meeting. The ZOOM will start at 9:30am on January 26, 2022 and will be “live” all day. Join at anytime throughout the day and stay on as long as you like. You can continue to ZOOM while working on your quilt or you can take a break and check back in later. We want to keep things flexible but also thought it would be nice to have set times where we come back together. We have set “check-in” times at 11:30am, 1:30pm, 3:30pm, 5:30pm and finally, 7:30pm. Feel free to show your progress during those times. Hopefully, by the 7:30pm “check-in” we will have some finished tops/quilts to show!
