2022 New Plans!
In 2022 we will be doing a monthly block exchange. Each month Kim T will be presenting a block to the guild. Members may choose to participate by making the block. All blocks made will be entered into a drawing for one member to win!
February’s block is “Brown Eyed Susan from Wendy Russell’s website. We will be making the 15” FINISHED block using a dark for the center, green for the leaves and any flower color you prefer.
January’s block is “Bright Morning Star” from Wendy Russell’s website. We will be making the 12″ FINISHED block. That means your block for the exchange will measure as 12-1/2″ when made.
2021 Round Robin –
As a round robin is basically a border quilt around a central block, I thought I’d share some books that I’ve found helpful over the years. All these books focus on borders, which is what we’ll be adding every month (unless you get really creative!) These are all from my personal library, and I’m hoping they’re all in print still.
