The Georgia National Fair Entries

Okay Ladies!!  All of your quilt entries must be brought to me by Thursday evening!  Please remember that each quilt must be in a pillowcase or other cloth bag with a FABRIC label basted onto the outside.  The label  will show “The Name of Your Quilt,     Your Name,    AND “Return to Lanette”.

You must also have a copy of the registration form IN the pillowcase with its quilt high-lighted.    There must be a copy in EACH pillowcase if you have multiple entries.  Make an extra copy of the form for me to keep so I will be able to locate your quilt(s) for pick-up after the fair closes.

Please call and let me know when you will be here.  (912) 713-2258.  See you soon!!!!

Nice Thought

Whether machine or hand quilter…Patience is required to learn a new technique, and remembering not to rush through the stitching before us ensures we soak in the calmness of our time with needle and thread.

Project Linus: Mystery Quilt Challenge

Hi Guild Members!

Today is the start of a really fun Project Linus event: the Mystery Quilt Challenge! For $20, you receive weekly step-by-step instructions and videos to create a single themed block, similar to the Quilt Guild “block of the month.” At the end of eight weeks is the “Big Reveal” with instructions to complete a youth-sized quilt!

You can sign up for the Mystery Quilt Challenge at https://www.projectlinus.org/  Make sure to specify Savannah / Hilton Head as the Chapter Name, and Ellie Grix as the Coordinator so that your donation benefits this local chapter.

The first clue is revealed on September 23! This is a fun project for quilters of all skill levels, and a great fundraiser for Project Linus.
