To GET the game, do the following: --Print Section 1 (Page 3) of this packet and follow the steps in ordering the fabric for this project. OR hand that sheet to someone who truly wishes to assist you in your endeavors to help children with their academic skills, and ask that person if he/she would order this panel of fabric and “donate” it to your classroom/home. --After you have received the fabric, print Section 2 (page 4) and make the game. If you can’t sew (only the very basic sewing skills are needed), give the fabric (with the printed page) to someone who CAN SEW, and ask him/her to consider making the quilt for your cause. If THAT person can’t do so, continue until you have found someone who WILL. If all else fails, go to your local quilt shop and inquire about hiring someone to put this project together. [This can be made QUICKLY, depending upon the amount of embellishment (if any) that is chosen.] Anyone who can stitch a straight seam (and who has a sewing machine) can stitch together this quilt.
