Program: Whole Kit and Caboodle!

A kit - is set of objects, as in a toolkit. A caboodle - is a term meaning group or collection, usually of people.

 Let's put the two together and see how many community service quilt kits we can complete in an evening. We’ll form teams of 3.

You can select your team members before the meeting and/or we can form teams Tuesday evening. We need members to bring sewing machines. We will have irons and ironing boards.


Community Service has ~40 kits all ready to sew. So start forming your teams and planning your strategies! Prizes will be awarded throughout the night!
