Talking PTO Quilt Project
PTO has a new and exciting project for members to be involved in...the Quilt Project.
There is a sub-forum devoted to this in Break Time, under Artistic Corner and Photo Gallery called PTO Quilting Forum.
We are creating a quilt together to represent our loved ones incarcerated, our loved ones lost, and our appreciation for having PTO for support.
This quilt will be displayed at Conferences and PTO functions as a representation of our Community Purpose.
Many members may not be aware of this endeavor, so we are making this announcement for all to have the opportunity to contribute to it if possible. We are hoping to have a square to represent each state and country forum, as well as other specific forums.
We already have several completed squares, with more on the way. Photos of those squares can be viewed here.
If you have a talent for art, sewing, quilting, or any ideas, please join us in this project!
If you are able to help create squares, please submit your release agreement. You can find that release form here.
It's well underway, but we need your support too!

I've been spreading the news about the quilt. What if there ends up being too many squares???

Hmmm... I only know how to crochet, so I don't think I'll be any help in this project.

Is the quilt project over or are you accepting squares still? If so I would love to help. I quilt and have a great idea for different squares but one especially for my son who is incarcerated. Thank you

That's a great idea. I would love to help, but I don't know how to sew. But I can draw good. I'll check it out and see what I can do. Where is this quilt going to be when it is done??
