GROUP QUILT! |
|
We have been approved to do a group quilt to be auctioned off as a fundraiser. This idea was presented by Joann and she has agreed to put the quilt together for us. What she needs is for everyone to help by making quilt blocks. Finished blocks should be 12 and 1/2 inches square, with no design past the 12 inches square. The 1/2 inch on the outside will be for seaming. The blocks should be all cotton material or a cotton blend. If you would like to do more than one block that’s fine also. Please include your name and address, written on a piece of paper and pinned to the block when you send it, so Joann can keep track of who donated so she can send a list to Peggy for the monthly paper work. We are doing a Red, White & Blue theme for this quilt. Blocks can be painted, embroidered by hand or machine, appliqued, pieced, you can even use crayons on white material, then iron them and that sets the crayon and then wash them in white vinigar, press them again and it will never come out. The blocks will need to be sent to Joann by May 1, 2007 to give her time to put the quilt together by June when we would like to do the auction during one of our summer activities. We will take a picture of the completed quilt for everyone to see. Lee Ann Please send the blocks to: Joann Drye 6310 S. 155th West Ave. Sapulpa, OK. 74066-2918 |
