The Library will be upgraded with a Barn Quilt. We are now accepting donations for this project. Online: Via PayPal, Check or Cash. If donating online or by check, please indicate in the notes section that your donation is for the Barn Quilt Project.
At the May 4th Barn Quilt session at the Weld Town Hall, There will be an area for the Library Barn Quilt to be Worked on. This is a Community Project, so even if you aren’t making a barn quilt of your own, please feel free to stop in and work on a section. Anyone already signed up for the session is welcome to work on the quilt.
The pattern is to be determined. We are in the idea process for the design, and open to suggestions. The size will be 3’x3′ or a 4’x4′ and hang on the left side of the library (new parking lot side).
