Hexie Club - 12/7/18

12/7/18 - Christmas Party

• The final birthday for the year will be Barb. 
• Please Please Please Please Please, let's have all birthday blocks to their recipients by the end of the year. I'm willing to bet the birthday girl would be happy to receive the papers and fabric if you don't have time to stitch them before the December meeting. Lets finish this year clean so we can start our Underground Railroad project with a clean slate.
• We had 12 participants this year so please check the colors that you have received against the expected list (blue, civil war, teal, orange, red, yellow, blue, blue, pink, purple, green, green) so we can make sure everyone has received the proper hexies. I am pretty sure I have an extra purple set so please let me know who I missed.

• 2018 Fall UFO Challenge - How did you do on your Challenge? Did you make a lot of progress? Maybe you even finished a project! Please bring your project to the party fro show-n-tell.

• LeftRight Game -  The FQ for this month is "sewing" in a color of your choice. Next year will be birth stones/flowers and I'll get that list on the blog "'soon".

• 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. 

• The first set of block directions for our Underground Railroad BOM were handed out at the November meeting. Is your block done yet? I know we are looking forward to show-n-tell to see all the color combos!
