Hexie Club - 9/1/17

The September meeting is to set up our exhibit at the Arts Council for Wyoming County (31 N Main Street, Perry). We'll start at 6pm and work until we are done. There are 22 quilts this year (33 last time) so I don't expect that it will take us too long to hang them all.

Please remember to have a hanging sleeve on your quilts - sleeves can be pinned on.

Also, please put your name on your quilt if it doesn't have a label - I use blue painters tape on the back

======================================   
Birthday swap - 

  • Johanna /NONscrappy red
======================================    
LeftRight Game -  no game this month

======================================    
Red, White & Gratitude -

Squares of WOW fabric were distributed at the last meeting so that we can hand applique our RWB rosettes to the squares. Any orientation is fine, as long as you are within the seam allowance. We'll be working on the layout at the August meeting.
