Be Part of a Beautiful Community Work of Art!

We’re creating something special together, and we’d love for you to add your piece!

What you’ll need:

• Fabric: 100% cotton, pre-washed (so it won’t shrink later)
• Fabric can be new or repurposed—an old shirt, blanket, or dress is perfect

Patch guidelines:

• Your patch should be 8½ × 11 inches (the size of a piece of cardstock)
• It may be made from one piece or several pieces of fabric sewn together
• You may stitch pieces together by hand or sewing machine
• Feel free to make as many patches as you want
• Please pin your name to each patch you submit
• Return your patch(es) by Sunday, February 15.

Need a hand?

Join us at the Heart & Soul Center on February 7, from 10:00 AM–12:00 noon for help creating your patch. Please sign up at the counter in the lobby of Heart and Soul Center of Light.

Questions?

Call 510-435-4806 and leave a message—we’ll get back to you. Bring your friends and family to our Community Quilting on March 1, noon to 3pm. We can’t wait to see what you create—every piece helps tell our shared story.
