Quiltathon at Unraveled!
Quiltathon started at Unraveled during the pandemic in October of 2020. We were looking for a way to safely gather, sew and help our community all in one fell swoop. We gathered quilters who rustled up donations like an old fashioned -thon, (think rockathon, dance-a-thon, the like) and we raised money for quilting charities, Quilts of Valor and Comfort Quilts. In 2021 we raised over $8,000 dollars for area food pantries, and in 2022, we raised $7,500 for the Indiana Chapter of Cystic Fibrosis.
We start the day early, in the parking lot of Unraveled Quilt Store outside under a big tent and sew until the wee hours of the next day. It’s an ENTIRE day of sewing! Quilters really are amazing. The photos below are just a snippet of what we’ve accomplished and we hope this tradition continues for many years to come.
