Quilter’s Message

The September Block of the Month instructions have been posted. Thanks to Emily Robertson Hood for this fun monthly project!!!

I ran across this article when planning design for a recent panel quilt and learned about this ratio for borders. Thought I would share with anyone who like me is not aware of this info. I found it very helpful. Donna V.

Don’t forget! If you took a Quilt Kit at the July meeting, please bring the pieced top to the guild meeting tomorrow, September 9! We’ll be assembling the tops into quilts at our Quilting Day on September 30. RSVP here if you want to join us! https://forms.gle/k2puiqzik8JwduJY7

Also as a reminder: Project Linus can only accept quilt tops when the materials have been provided by our chapter funds (i.e. the quilt kits and projects made on Sew Days). We cannot accept any other donated quilt tops due to limited funding and supplies.

E-mail me if you have any questions: elliegrix@gmail.com

We have one member unable to attend tomorrow’s Dresden Class. If you are interested in taking that spot at no charge, please let me know immediately. First call gets the class.

Get your fabrics out and join us for Candyce Grisham’s Reimagined Dresden Quilt Block Class this Friday at the Southside Baptist Church.  Please arrive at 9:30 so that you will have time to set up your sewing station and meet your fellow classmates.  Wear your name tag so we can put names to faces.  We have a member from South Carolina Quilt Guild joining us so please be sure to make her feel welcomed.  You should also plan to bring water, snacks and a lunch.

If you need a copy of the student supply list, drop me an email or text me and I will get it off to you.  Candyce is bringing her book and rulers for sale both on Friday and Saturday.

We ask that you help with the clean up at the end of class.  We need to pack up all our personal supplies and the guild’s supplies (power chords, irons and ironing table, cutting mat, etc) As well as putting the chairs and tables back in place. It takes a village to have a good time! Enjoy your day with Candyce.

Tomorrow by midnight is the last day to register your quilts on-line AND they must be registered in order to enter them!

Reminding everyone that the quilts need to be at my house by Thursday evening, registered, and each quilt in a pillowcase with a basted-on label that includes  “Name of quilt”,  “your name”, and “Return to Lanette”.  Include one copy of the registration form IN ‘each’ pillowcase PLUS one copy of the registration form for me so I will be able to pick up the quilts after the fair.

We are having a terrific turnout this year, 47 quilts so far (as of 2:45 pm today)!  This group of ladies really do beautiful work!  You should all be proud!!!!!

Call me if you need help with the registration,

Thanks, Lanette (912) 713-2258
