Open Sew January 24 CANCELLED – Online Open Snow instead!

Hi everyone! Saturday’s Open Sew meeting invitation was not received by the Nor’Easter that will bring snow and ice and general winter misery to North Jersey. So we will not be meeting at the LDS church in Caldwell. Sadly, our meeting is cancelled.

However! Since we’ll be trapped inside with time to spare, why not sew at home AND together?

Introducing NJMQG’s first ever online sewcial! We’re calling it NJMQG Open Snow. Saturday, 12-4PM

Here’s how you can participate:

  1. Post pictures of what you’re sewing on Instagram. Hashtag it #njmqg and/or #njmqgopensnow
  2. Post in our members-only Facebook group any questions, conversations or links you’d like to share.
  3. Check in on both groups and like/comment your guild mates’ work!

We’re going to post announcements from the meeting here on the blog and post pictures of our door prizes (fabric pre-cuts!) on Instagram. Comment for a chance to win! We’ll have a different prize every hour.

Stay warm, stay safe, and sew on!

Meeting this Thursday | May 15

Hi everyone!

It feels like ages since our last guild meeting, so come on down to Rock Paper Scissors at 7pm on May 15th and join us for the three F’s: fun, friends and of course, fabric

Here’s what we have planned:

  • An update on the Michael Miller MQG challenge
  • Information on elections in June
  • Upcoming events like Quilters Take Manhattan, Garden State Social, and the Warwick Quilt Show
  • A June swap based on the Pantone color of the year: Radiant Orchid
  • Everyone’s favorite: Show and Tell

We’ll also be taking a collection for the hospice in honor of our former VP, Peggy Kelleher to donate as a gift from the guild. Judy Veltidi will be collecting whatever donation you would like to give. She will be at the meeting and can answer any questions you might have but if you would like to reach her before Thursday, she can be contacted at motherfrog <at> hotmail <dot> com.

Bring a chair and your name tag, and we’ll see you on Thursday!
