the Children at Changing Lives Center for women and
children. Changing Lives Center is a domestic

On top of the regular "No-Sew" fleece blanket we
usually make, we would like to introduce a "Sew"
baby blanket making section for those who would like
to bring in your own sewing machines and sew simple
36 inch square blankets for babies.We will meet on Saturday, November 18th at 10 AM in the
Fellowship Hall. We should finish by 1 PM.
