COFFEE CREEK QUILTERS
FABRIC AND SEWING SUPPLIES DONATION GUIDELINES
Coffee Creek Quilters are accepting donations of fabric and sewing supplies in support of the quilting instruction we provide to Adults in Custody at the Coffee Creek Correctional Facility. Donations are directed either to the classroom or to our annual sale, our yearly fundraiser that provides the quilting program with financial support for items we do not receive as donations. Donations in kind that cannot be used by the quilting program are donated to other local charitable organizations.
Here are our donation guidelines. Coffee Creek Quilters can accept:

- 100% cotton pre-cut fabric such as fat quarters, jelly rolls, layer cakes, etc.
- Quilt kits, panels, and patterns

- Rotary cutters, cutting mats, thread, scissors, pins, needles, and other quilting notions
