Thursday Sewing Group - 10am - 1pm
Fifth Thursday Sew-Ins - 10am - 1pm
Four months of the year have a fifth Thursday, so we are designating this day as a sew-in. Our next Sew-In is November 30th. August 31st - Our members came together and assembled 42 Library Bags. Everyone had a job to do and we kept the assembly line rolling. It was great fun!
Polly brought in 10 and Martha and Mandy took home some kits to finish. We have 68 so far to give to Mills Chapel Church for the Christmas Shoe Boxes. Since then we have had more library bags come in bringing the total to 98. Thank you all for your hard work! links_to_library_bag_tutorial.pdf
June 29th was Santa’s Workshop!
We made Log Cabin Santa ornaments that can be sold at the Christmas Market. Use up your red and white fabric scraps and strips for these adorable ornaments. There are three pattern options that are basically log cabin blocks. See Martha for more details. March 30th was the first one. It was taught by our own, Andrea Thompson. We had a great time learning and creating aprons.

And what quilter doesn't love to save money?! Using a brilliant worksheet from Jinny Beyer Studio based on a John Flynn method, Bradie is able to easily turn this 60" wide fabric into 77" without having to use two full lengths of fabric.
