Our June meeting is this Wednesday!
Date and Time: June 21, at 7:00 p.m.
Place: Sew Many Pieces,
1717 Wolf Road "A"
Richfield, WI 53076
Note the place change!! We will be meeting at Mickey's shop!! Bring a folding chair or two if you can.Brown Bag Exchange
Don't forget your brown bag for the brown bag exchange, if you are participating. Just find a fat quarter, and put it and a piece of paper with your name on it in a brown paper bag. We'll do a blind exchange, where nobody knows whose bag anybody else got. Once you get your bag, you use the fat quarter to make something (pretty much anything!) for the person whose name is in the bag. Then wrap it in Christmas/holiday paper, and give it to the person at our Christmas party. Simple, right? Maybe you'll do better than I do, and make your gift BEFORE the last minute.
Food Pantry
At our last meeting, we decided to collect money for the local food pantries for the next few months. They will use it to buy meat, milk, etc. It's just another way to help our neighbors in need.
Retreat!
Are you going on the retreat with us? See Mary M. at the meeting to reserve your spot.
Free Quilt Patterns
There are so many great quilt patterns on the internet, but it can be hard to find them. Here's a website every quilter should know about: Marcia Hohn's Quilters Cache
Marcia has patterns for hundreds of quilt blocks, with good clear directions, and often suggestions on how to set the blocks together, etc. You can search for blocks by name or by size.
See you Wednesday night!
