The diocesan quilt is ready to have the binding sewn onto its perimeter. This is the last step in the completion of the quilt. St. Clement’s, Rancho Cordova has generously offered their parish hall again, and I have scheduled a workday on Thursday August 18, from 9:30am to mid afternoon.

The first phase will be machine-sewing the binding and hanging sleeves to the edges of the quilt, which is estimated to take about an hour (maybe a little longer). Beginning about 10:30, there will be opportunities for more volunteers to hand-sew the binding and the hanging “sleeves” to the back side of the quilt.
