We had to change the location to Jensen's Grove

So we hope everyone found us.

 

 

NEWS

September 27 will be the TRUNK SHOW

and LUNCH

at 11:00 at the church.

Everyone bring a potluck dish

 

October 18 meeting is one week earlier

than usual.  This UFO.  So if

you don't remember if you signed

up to finish a project.  This is a good

time to pretend you did and go ahead

and finish that project that you are

hiding so that you don't have to look

at any more. Please bring to show us!!

that we helped to make the garden possible
with the funds from the Raffle Quilt last year.
 

BOOK REPORT

 

Lori Jarmin gave a book report  on

Eleanor Burns' book

Quilts Through the Seasons

that is in our library.

There are quilts for every season

and she has detailed instructions

and fabric amounts for each size.

Lori show the quilt from the book

 Front Porch Summer
 

 

PORTABLE DESIGN WALL

Doris Coffey showed how to make a

portable design wall.

Get a folding old fashioned cutting board

Looks like VVV.

It is 36x72 and cover with 2 yards

of flannel.  If you want to permanently

attach flannel she used two sided tape on

the edges.  Attach flannel to the back side

of the cutting board.  You will need two

curtain rods that expand to at least 72". 

Put along the long sides and use the largest

binder clips to hold it on (4 on each side).

.

 This the back side of the folding cutting board.
