Our August Open Sew guild meeting was awesome!
β’ We had an Open Sew Challenge! Tracy prepared bundles of donated fabric for charity quilt tops for those who wanted to participate for a prize. The competition was heated. π At one point Amy and Kimberli were neck and neck. Ultimately, Amy finished first and Kimberli came in at a close second. Way to go ladies!
β’ There was a “Free Table” set up at the meeting. So many goodies to choose from. We are considering practicing this concept at future meetings. Stay tuned for details at a later time.
β’ We had our Dumpling Pouch Swap and our 2nd Quarter Bee Block Swap and overall, a great time!
β’ Just look at these two Show and Tell stunners by Michelle and Diane!
β’ Thank you to all who donated blocks for Mother Emanuel Church at the July meeting. Six quilt tops were made and donated! The photos are from the Charleston MQG.
β’ October’s Swap will be an Infinity Scarf. There will be a sign up and we will pair members up. Details coming soon.
β’ Thank you so much to Stephanie and Colleen for being such gracious hosts at the LDS Church!!

Just a little correction: the September 29 deadline is for submissions to next year’s Quiltcon magazine issue, not 2017. Thanks to comments from folks at last night’s meeting, I am going to submit and article on making the most of your Quiltcon experience!
So glad you are submitting an article, Aleeda!!!
Do we have a meeting this Thursday, 9/17? We usually get an email.
Hi Jackie,
Yes, the meeting is this Thursday. I am working on a Reminder post right now.
Also, you can always check the “Meetings” tab at the top of the blog page for when the next meeting is taking place. π
See you Thursday!!
