March Meeting Highlights

Our Potholder Swap was a huge success. Look at all these pretty potholders! 
Who will actually USE theirs?

Pam T. won the  Block of the Month drawing and went home with some beautiful Rose Garden blocks!

The Quilt-Along is in full swing! Strips were swapped and some of our brand new quilters were given strips so they could get in on the fun.  For those participating, create anything you want from your blocks (quilt, table runner, wall hanging, tote bag…)  Your finished projects are due at the November meeting. Directions for making your blocks are HERE.  
TIP: Make sure the first seam you rip out is a dark fabric and work down from there.

New Business:
The Modern Quilt Guild is restructuring, and individual Guilds have options for how they relate to MQG. Guild members are encouraged to watch the MQG’s presentation for all the details. Please bring your questions and comments to our next meeting.  The Guild will decide as a group how to proceed in light of these changes.

NEXT MONTH:
The Block of the Month is the Polaroid block. These fun blocks have the dimensions and look of beloved Polaroid instant snapshots. This is a fun way to use any pictorial fabric in your stash!

Get your scraps out! Joy will share a fun, easy way to use them to add pizzazz to your projects. 

See you in April!
