Hexie Club - 12/1/17 - Christmas Party

======================================    
Friday, 12/1/17
  • Our group photo was delayed again - fingers crossed it happens this time! Third times the charm and all...
  • Birthday swap - Barb is asking for 2 different Civil War prints.
    • PLEASE try to catch up on all birthdays by the end of the year so we can start fresh in January. I would almost bet the recipients wouldn't mind receiving just the intended fabric and papers if you don't have time to do the basting.
  • LeftRight Game -  please bring a FQ containing snowflakes. 
    • 2018 FQ assignments are posted on the FQ page so you can start shopping!
  • Mugrug swap! Your mugrug must include some type of EPP and should be about 5x8". Christmas theme/fabric is not a requirement. Please bring your mugrug wrapped. 
  • We are doing a potluck dinner for our party. Please let me know of any changes...
    • Agnes - dessert?
    • Ann - deviled eggs
    • Barb - beans & sausage
    • Carol - surprise!
    • Cathy - crack candy?
    • Cheryl - dessert?
    • Erica - 
    • Grace - 
    • Johanna - 
    • Lisa - 
    • Luanne - mini cherry cheesecakes
    • Pat - cupcakes?
    • Robyn - beans & ground beef
    • Sarah - punch
    • Sue C - stromboli
    • Susan T - cheese & crackers
======================================    
Red, White & Gratitude - To cover the costs of quilting our 2 donated quilts, we each donated $13. I'm hoping the following are also willing to pitch in: Agnes, Grace, Johanna and Pat. Thank you!

======================================  
Monday, 1/1/18
  • "They" say that what you do on New Year's Day is what you will do all year. It's the perfect excuse to spend the day sewing hexies!! 
  • The store is closed but Sarah has the key! She'll arrive at noon and we can sew till we drop.
  • Feel free to wear your PJs.
  • We'll be doing a potluck meal for our New Year's Party - think about what you want to bring and we'll do signups at the December meeting.
  • Don't forget to bring the UFO you'll be working on for our challenge.
======================================  
2018 UFO Challenge - Everyone is invited to pick one EPP UFO to make progress on (and hopefully finish!) by the Christmas in July Party.

======================================
2018 Birthday Exchange - 4" Kaleidoscope
  • We are trying something a little different this year!! 
  • Instead of each birthday girl receiving her favorite color, the birthday girl will receive the givers' favorite colors to make scrappy quilts.
  • Each person will be gifting the birthday girl (8) large triangles and (4) small triangles. The birthday girl will then add 8 large and 4 small triangles of background fabric to your gift to complete 2 blocks. I will post pictures on the birthday tab ASAP.
  • If you choose to use 2 fabrics it will be 4 large of 1 fabric and 4 large/4 small of another fabric. 
  • Anyone want to swap more than one set to make a bigger quilt?
I'm still working on pictures for the birthday page.
Papers and templates will be available at the December meeting.

=====================================
9/2019 ACWC Quilt show
  • Jackie was very excited to invite us to have another quilt show in 2 years! 
  • We would like all of the quilts to finish at about 34" x 42".
  • Design/paper shape is your choice.
  • Don't forget the hanging sleeve!
