BELLINGHAM -  Yankee Quilters, a nonprofit quilt group active in the Franklin and MetroWest area, is holding a collection drive for gently used soft-lines and books on Saturday, September 6th, from 9:00 a.m. to 12 noon. The organization’s volunteers will be at their drop off location in Bellingham, at Prime Storage, 302 Hartford Avenue and are also available to pick up donations at your home.

Yankee Quilters helps local cancer patients by donating quilts to Dana Farber, families in need through additional charitable organizations, and people around the world through Wrap the World in Quilts. Volunteers use mostly donated materials to make these quilts; however, funds are needed for batting which is used for warmth. This fundraiser also helps with lectures to improve our skills.
