We had a great meeting tonight - lots of items to talk about, lots of show and tell, lots of participation! Here are just a few.
Everybody (well, almost everybody) brought in their Lonely Crayon blocks - we have 30 of them with another two promised from Jeanine and Debbie. I brought them home with me tonight and couldn't resist taking pictures of some of them. The range of color and design is wonderful and they should make a lively quilt. We are getting together on Sunday, Sept 23 at Rock Paper Scissors, 12:noon to lay out the blocks and hopefully, get the top put together. So far, we have 8 or 9 volunteers. Here are some of the blocks I pulled out randomly. Tip of the iceberg!
We are planning a quilt retreat,possibly for March. People signed up for further info; if you did not, please email us
nnjmodquilts@gmail.com and we'll put you on the list.
Kelli Puryear is in charge of the shelter quilt project we're going to do in conjunction with QuiltCon. More on this at next meeting, which is September 20th.
Also due at next meeting, your before and after blocks. Some of them came in tonight and were fun to see.
Don't forget - if you want to post anything at all to the blog, let me know and I will send you an invitation to be a contributor. How about it??
Till next time.
