 Meeting Recap Notes

Our Living Coral Technique of the Month quilt is being donated to Camp Carol Joy Holling. The quilt will be auctioned at their live quilt auction on July 27 to benefit the camp which is the site of our Retreats.  Living Coral was the Pantone color of the year when the quilt was made.

Sew Day - July 13!

 

Don't forget our upcoming Sew Day this Saturday, July 13th from 10:30 - 3:00. 

Come and sew a block (or pick up a kit) for our QuiltCon Community Outreach Quilt! Supplies provided.

As always, bring a project you are working on, need advice on, or even want to give just a short technique demo about. This is your time to sew without all those pesky interruptions at home. Bring a sack luch if you wish and there will be a refrigerator available if needed.

Also - if you have an idea for a Sew Day workshop you can download the form from our Community Facebook page. We are still looking to fill the November 9th spot and beyond - think forward to 2025 opportunities. Paper piecing, applique, big hand stitching, surface design technique, a project like a bag or wall hanging? Think about what others may want to learn or make.
