March Meeting This Week!

This Wednesday, March 20th, is our meeting date.  Hurray!  Let's all cross our fingers and hope for good weather.

Details:
Wednesday, March 20, 2019
6:30 p.m.
Pilgrim Lutheran Church
462 Meadowbrook Drive, West Bend, Wisconsin


All are welcome.


So, what can you do with a 2.5 in. strip?  Let's find out!
This month starts our birthday strip exchange.  Each month, those of us participating will bring a strip (2.5 in. x width of fabric) for the participants who are having their birthdays that month.  Different people will ask for different colors or kinds of prints, etc.  BTW, don't forget to wish these ladies a Happy Birthday.
Here are the strips to bring on Wednesday.  The list includes February and March because we had to cancel the February meeting.

February
Kelly D. – Red or white (think aged flags)
Mary L. – 1930’s
Ree K. – deep purple or deep black

March
Lynn S. – blue


This should be fun!

Speaking of fun, have you been making the Blocks of the Month?  Pam W. has designed a quilt just for us, with the very appropriate theme of Friendship.  So far, we have received the first two blocks.  Here are mine:
How is this going to work?  We'll find out as we go along.
With only one block per month, it wouldn't be too hard to catch up if you haven't started yet.  Just saying.
Bring your finished blocks to the meeting.  I can't wait to see what colors and fabrics everybody is using.

Here's Homework Puppy to tell us what else to bring to the meeting.

Panel Quilts (if you made one)

Dues (if you haven't paid yet)

 Food Pantry Donations (cash or grocery cards, please)

 YOUR NAME TAG!!!  (Wear it with pride!)

Show and Tell (the very best part!)



And now for some virtual show and tell.  
First, I apologize for all the terrible camera angles.  Photography is not really my thing (can you tell?).  Also, if your quilt isn't pictured, it's probably because I took a blurry photo or otherwise goofed up.  I'm very sorry.

Virtual Show and Tell
 
Wow!  There is so much talent in our group!  Great job, everyone.
See you on Wednesday!
