Another Successful Group!

We had our Friday Morning Group meet on Friday the 10th and had a good showing and had fun talking quilting! Ok well, I had fun talking Quilting and I think everyone else did too. There were lots of questions and hopefully enough answers.


Session 2 will be on

Thursday, October 23rd; 7:00 pm &

Friday, October 24th; 10:00 am


If you are still interested in attending, but haven't been able to get to the 1st Session, please email me or leave a comment and we'll get together and get you caught up.


For Session 2 Please Bring:


All the Yummy Fabric you found to make your quilt with! I can't wait to see what everyone brings.


Rotary Cutter
Self-healing cutting mat
Rotary cutting ruler; needs to be at least 12 x 6
Scraps to practice cutting strips

ALSO. . .

Bring your sewing machine and basic sewing supplies.


If you are REALLY nervous about using that razor sharp rotary cutter, you can buy a Klutz glove. These were developed by Fons & Porter. Sometimes you can find them in the store, or search online for one. These are worn on the hand that holds the ruler, so if you accidentally slip it will protect that poor ruler hand that bares the brunt of those kind of mistakes!!


We will cut strips, and sew and press them together. You will have homework!! Yippee! feels like you're back in school.

Janette and Amy stayed for awhile after everyone left and kept sewing. It was FUN! Can't wait to get sewing next week!
