Description:
Hi! My name is Sylvia. I am a Senior Girl Scout here in Arizona currently pursuing my Gold Award: creating textured/weighted quilts for special education students in classrooms around the Valley, designed to promote self-regulation and calming strategies.
A few months ago, I posted looking for scrap fabric donations and was super successful in my collection. Now that I have made an initial (prototype) quilt (photos #2 & 3), I am seeking volunteer sewists to learn to make a textured puff quilt, and to help me sew more for donating to SUSD classrooms. I will be holding a workshop/service event Friday, March 6th between 1pm and 4:30pm at the Via Linda Senior Center in Scottsdale, Arizona.
If you are unavailable but would like to contribute, I am still looking for textured fabric donations, specifically of sequin flip fabric, corduroy, or crinkle fabric, or buckle fasteners, so please reach out and I can arrange a pickup time.
Thank you and hope you can join me!
