FRIENDSHIP QUILTERS STASH EXCHANGE will continue in September with : 5” squares of 20’s/30’s prints OR Civil War reproductions OR 5” across width of fabric (WOF) of fall/leaves  . Bring your pre-washed, ironed and neatly cut squares in a bag with your name and numbers of squares  to the exchange area at the start of the meeting. We will swap them out one for one during the meeting and hope to have them ready for pick up at the end.

July and  August NO exchanges

 

Oct: 5” squares of Thimbleberries OR Orientals

Nov: 5” squares of POTLUCK! (anything goes…..)

Dec: Take a break—aren’t you busy enough at this time of year??? .

The August  SATURDAY AT THE LIBRARY will be on the 16th.—we are working on our two fabric quilt project  and plan to add an afternoon session on “I SPY” quilts. This is the perfect chance to use those 5 in novelty squares we exchanged or swap with those willing to share at the library. The bigger the variety the better for these. There are several methods for these quilts and we would like to hear how you have done them—please let us know this Sat. or contact Ursula so we can offer several options next month. Dig out your novelties if you’re willing to share next month!

Don’t forget to cut those teeny tiny ½ “ strips as you cut things out this summer. You can use them in Oct when we make coiled baskets!
