Carrie Zizza: A Deep Dive into Needles, Thread, Batting and Fabric |
What an awesome and interesting Carrie Zizza presented to our Guild! She covered a lot of topics in detail and presented so many interesting facts about each. Who knew there were so many things to think about when choosing needles, thread, fabric and batting? We all learned some new things to enhance our sewing and quilting. Thanks, Martha for lining up such awesome programs for us! Here’s a link to an introduction video for Carrie's lecture: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZvCOd6DU-JM on t lecture - A Deep Dive into Needles, Thread, Batting and Fabric |
President's Challenge March 2021
I would like to present a challenge to our members to make 100 burp cloths out of flannel. These would go to the Coweta Pregnancy center. You can download templates for making these from the internet. They are fast and simple to make. Mills Chapel Baptist Church has a mission to support the center. We have always helped support them in this goal.

Hetty delivered 28 quilts and 32 burp cloths to the Pregnancy Center about 3 weeks ago so we have a great start!
Below is a pattern from Connecting Threads.
