Hexie Club - 5/2/14

Just one way to use your birthday diamonds next year...
Birthday club - 
-This month everyone should bring black & white 3/4" hexies. Remember, it's a secret!!
-Papers and templates for the 1.5" 6-point diamonds for Round #2 of Birthday Club will be available at the meeting.
-If you already have the papers and want to get started: think purple, blue and scrappy

LeftRight Game - Bring a FQ for our monthly Left-Right Game.

I'm still deciding on the last 6 hexies - hopefully this weekend!

Project - 
-This month we will be working on a fussy cutting project that looks more complicated than it is. Feel free to bring any stripe or border fabric (at least 1/2 yard) to play with.
-If you want to replicate my project you will need 1/2 yard of the RWB border fabric at TQD and a FQ of the coordinating red fabric.
- You'll need to bring a cutting mat and rotary cutter, 1.5" hexie papers and 1.5" hexie template. Claudia has both available at TQD.

Snacks - Don't forget a snack or drink of your choice
