kits together for you; with the exception of the embroidery class, we are providing the Janome MC8900 machines for
you to sew on; the Mariner’s Compass Class is an easy construction class and will be completed in a half day – it is not

classroom. You can trade in your machine too – what a deal! You can try out these machines at Janome MC8900

boys are 12 to 18 years of age and have suffered from abuse or severe neglect in their home life. These boys enter the
home with nothing, but the quilt they receive is their own to keep. We need all quilts by December 10. Ask Shelia
Meredith, Louisville Project Linus Coordinator, Linda, or the Moore’s Team for further information. The approximate
size is 60 to 70” by 80 to 90”. The fabric of the quilt should be appropriate for a tween or teenage boy.
