Meeting July 23, 2026 6:00 PM Old Worthington Library
19 members attended. Wear your name tag each month. Leigh
played a game that each person had to name something they bought at the quilt
store and each person needed to remember what the person before them said. The end of the group had to remember 19!

first mention that September meeting is cancelled due to the AQS show
during that time. To find information

September meeting being cancelled). Our first challenge of 2026 is due
November 2026. Each participant
will create a quilt using only three (3) yards of fabric for the quilt
top. The goal of this challenge is to
inspire creativity, efficient fabric use and unique design within a shared
constraint
Fabric swap coordinator is Olivia. August meeting is stripes or polka dots. For each swap the member should bring the
specific fabric, cut in 4 fat quarters (21x18).
The fat quarters do not have to be 4 of the same fabric, but need to follow
the swap guidelines. They should be put
in a bag with the member’s name on it.
Project bag swap – A project bag can organize your
sewing project in a sturdy bag with a vinyl or mesh front. A few examples are shown on the website. By Annie.com has a pattern for these bags. Bring your completed bag to the August meeting (due to September cancellation),
wrapped in a gift bag. All who wish to
participate will select a wrapped bag to take home.
Block raffle – Flower Power hexies – 8 people
participated and brought 30 blocks.
Participants will receive one ticket for each block made and a winner of
all the blocks will be drawn. Courtney
was the winner of all the blocks.
