Stocking QTYW day Oct 16

Just a reminder that the group is having a QTYW (Quilt Till You Wilt) tomorrow Oct 16th, starting at 9:00AM. We'll be making Christmas stockings for the church's youth outreach program. We need folks to do all sorts of jobs... iron, cut, sew on buttons and be general "handymen" for the event. Come as early as you can and stay as long as possible.

We might take a break to watch some of the air show from the parking lot... (they are practicing right now... its rather loud...).

Remember...
Sewing supplies if you'll be sewing (machine in good working order), we do have a couple spares...

Bring a snack to share

and money for lunch (we might visit the UPWARD concession stand)

See you tomorrow...
LHQG

Oct 12 mtg






As you can tell from the photos we were all busy with our projects this meeting. Peggy took the opportunity to learn the Disappearing 9 Patch (D9P) block technique. Terri was assembling the top to a baby quilt that is made from only half square triangles. I think the fabrics came straight from the stash closet, you go Terri. Joanne was doing a picture smocking technique to the top of young girl's dress. Patti got the borders around a holiday panel... Yes, Mari-Lynn stayed till the Leadership meeting called her attentions away, and I was there as just teacher for the folks that wanted to catch up on the D9P block...

Enjoy the photos...
