June 18th Meeting Reminder!

This month we'll be doing our community service sew, and we'll be making pillow cases!

We'll have a demo of how to make these pillow cases, which are simple, fun and come together fast!

Here is a tutorial if you want to look ahead on how to do this project.

There will be a few "spots" available; sewing, cutting and pressing.  There will also be a few giveaways!  If you want to "destash" something small to add to the giveaway pile, feel free!

We'll also have a quick show and tell, but we'll want to dive into sewing as quickly as possible.

See everyone Saturday!

June 20th Community Service Sew Day Recap

Wow!  We had so much fun!!!

All together we got over 100 pillowcases sewn for Ronald McDonald house.  There was quite a production going on; pressing stations, "hot dog" sewers and "final seam" sewers, as well as fabric cutters.  We all had a great time and it was all for a good cause!

Thank you so much to the always fabulous Stefanie for showing us how to make these awesome pillow cases!

Thanks also go to Riley Blake for donating the cutest, fun fabric that we got to sew!

We also had some show and tell!

Lindsay showed us her lovely low volume cross quilt top, as well as a "onesie quilt" she made from her son's onesies.

 Veronica showed off her beautiful bag she's made.

Katie wowed us with this awesome maple leaf quilt she's made for a Canadian wedding this fall!  (SHE FINISHED IT BEFORE THE WEDDING!  YOU GUYS!! )

I brought along some stuffed animals called Al's pals that I've been working on.

Thanks again for everyone who came out to help us have such an amazing turn out and so many pillowcases sewn!

Next month is our shop hop!
