Hexie Club - 12/5/14

Birthday club -  --- Barb would like "earth tone" diamonds.

LeftRight Game - No fat quarters needed this month - instead we'll be using our fussing cutting challenge rosettes. Is yours done yet? 

Logo - I'm trying to get directions together for making our logos. You guys were a lot more enthusiastic than I was expecting :-) If you have already picked your color and or fabrics then bring them with you. You'll need 4 FQs that are from the same color family and shaded light to dark. We will need to pick black and white fabrics to purchase so thatw e all use the same ones.

Out & About - Jackie at the ACWC is thrilled we will be doing the 2 quilt shows (hexie club projects in September and any quilt next winter at the YMCA). She'll be getting back to me with dates...

Projects - This month's project is Bonnie's Snowman Mugrug. I'll add the supply list as soon as I confirm it with Bonnie. I emailed the wrong Bonnie and waited and waited for an answer. Sorry!!

Supplies:

  • using 1" hexies: white surrounded by any christmas fabric.
  • tiny black buttons for eyes (or Agnes is bringing black snaps to share)
  • a tiny bit of orange backed by Steam A Seam (I'll have some to share if anyone needs)
  • a pencil for marking the mouth
  • black embroidery floss for the mouth and black thread for attaching eyes


Retreat - a suggestion was made to have an EPP retreat at Camp Asbury. We would probably expand that thought to include any kind of handwork. Anyone interested?

Snacks - What's your fav Christmas snack? I can't wait to find out!
