The following is from the Stake:
Dear Relief Society Sisters, This next year our youth are going on Pioneer Trek! We have a committee of sewers who along with sewers from each ward will be going to the wards and helping each of your Young Women make a skirt, a bonnet and an apron to wear on Trek. We are attempting to this in the true spirit of pioneering and do it all with "gleened" fabric! Meaning---we are seeking fabric and notion donations from you. So, look around and see if you can help us out. If you are a quilter or sewer you're probably guilty of hoarding. Maybe just a little? Some of those bolts of fabric that you don't love anymore could go on trek with your Stake! We are looking for cottons in small prints, checks, or stripes. You know those mauve striped tablecloths from your daughter's wedding in the 80's? That fabric would be so much happier in a skirt on pioneer trek than in your "maybe I might need this someday" stash! Today is that day! We are also looking for border or retro print pillowcases---these make simple and adorable pioneer aprons! And, any trim big enough to go on a bonnet or apron would be appreciated. Especially grosgrain ribbon in any increments larger than 1 yard. Or---if you love thrifting at the many used shops in the Valley---here's a chance to shop for us. Look for bottom sheets and wonderful pillowcases that look a little 'pioneerish". We'll have a Facebook page soon; and won't it be a kick to see one of the young gals in the stake wearing your curtains on trek!!! Please just drop donations on the front porch of 5255 Cottonwood Club Drive. Or, call Jennifer West at 801 831-0247 and I will come and pick them up. THANKS |
