New Group Forming in Partnership with our Victor Methodist and Lutheran friends in Christ!
Victor Stitch-n-Chat
Starting Wednesday, September 21, 1-2:30 PM
All handcrafters are invited to join us for 90 minutes of stitching and chatting! We meet on the third Wednesday of every month from 1-2:30 PM at First Presbyterian Church in Victor.
Bring your current project (knitting, crocheting, tatting, embroidery, paper crafting, etc.), work on a prayer (comfort) shawl or start a square for Blessings ‘n Blankets! All skill levels are welcome. Want to learn to knit or crochet? We can help! Contact Brenda Dean at [email protected] for more information.
***********************************************************************
We’re making 10” x 10” squares to join together to make blankets. The blankets will be donated to one or more community organizations (TBD) that may have a need.
Use worsted weight (#4) washable yarn and weave in all ends. The finished square should be 10 inches by 10 inches and dropped off/sent to First Presbyterian Church in Victor, 70 E Main St, Victor, NY 14564.
In a few months we will begin joining squares together into blankets. Email, text or call Brenda Dean if you wish to be added to the list for our joining parties. , [email protected]

Wondering what the finished blankets might look like? Here are some that were made by a church in Atlanta! There are over 2000 squares that have been sewn into 55 blankets.
