In August we sliced and diced up some fun Crisscross Placemats. These fun mats are super easy!
NEW:
~ Our big This is My Modern Quilt Guild Challenge is underway! We have a spot to showcase our challenge quilts at Mid-Atlantic in February, so let’s rise to the challenge and show ’em what we’ve got! There is no size limit on finished challenge quilts, so every member is encouraged to participate.
Show & Tell:
 |
| Angelia shows off her latest vest design. |
 |
| Emily did a great job on this colorful jelly roll quilt! |
 |
| Mike finished this beauty for his special (& very lucky!) gal. |
 |
| Tricia turned a past BOM pattern into this bright throw. |
 |
| Jenny shows off her newest bag…. |
 |
| …and Iris showed off a bag full of cute bags she’s been busy making. |
NEXT MONTH:
~ “School” returns in September with our Finishing Boot Camp. We’ll learn binding tricks and alternative ways to finish our quilts.
~ We’re swapping fat quarters! If you signed up, bring three (3) coordinating fat quarters for your swap partner. Want to be a Swap Angel? You can bring extras to put in our prize stash!
~ September’s Block of the Month is the Bow Tie Block. Use white as your background – it does not need to be Kona white. Don’t forget – anyone can be a block angel by making an extra block or more for charity quilts.
~ Don’t forget to bring a little somethin’ for your secret pal!
Reminders:
~ Bibs for the senior center are due at October’s meeting.
~ Our Chinese Auction is in need of items to auction off! Think last-minute holiday shopping. IDEAS: Hand made items, notions & fun items to add to gift baskets, gift cards.
~ Meeting Minutes can be found in our PMQG Family Facebook group. Members not on Facebook can request the minutes via email.
~ Our Facebook Page is new and public to everyone. Spread the link so all your friends can like us! www.facebook.com/peninsulamqg
