The days are growing longer and we are all getting a little spring fever…
Do we ever have a cure for you!
Join the Forget-Me-Knot quilters for our annual SPRING FLING! There will be door prizes, games and lots of fun for all.
This year our instructor is Mary Pomeroy from Dina’s Cozy Cabin Quilts in Eagle River, AK.
On Friday night Mary will be teaching us the fuse, fold, and stitch method with a small wall hanging from Dina Pappas’ book Quick Watercolor Quilts.
You can choose to get a time saving pre-paid kit for $20 (this is well worth the price) or to put your own spin on it with the supply list you will have in your registration packet.
Our Saturday project will be one of your choosing from Dina’s book Fast Forward Your Quilting. The cost of BOTH of these books is included in your registration fee! (You get both books!!)
The fling kicks off on Friday the 25th at 5:00 pm
We will have a potluck dinner that night, so bring a dish to share. After dinner, it will be “quilt till ya wilt”. We will gather again on Saturday at 8:00 am for breakfast and then on to the main class. Wrap up is around 4:00 pm.
If you are one of our out of town quilters and want to crash at one of our members home on Friday night, be sure to indicate that on you registration form. And if you can house someone, let us know and we will get you together.
Space is limited and will be on a first-come-firstserved basis with paid registration. You will receive a registration packet with your books and supply list soon after we receive your fee.
The cut off date is March 11th, so sign up soon! Questions about registration. Call Christy 895-4265 or 803-3530
Hi Quilters! Are you ready for Spring? Well then…Are you ready for Spring Fling??
This is Shana (hi!) I was asked to find this year’s block for the Spring Fling drawing. The name of the block is titled My Blue Heaven, and it’s very easy to piece together.
When you lay the blocks out it makes a nice overall secondary star design. Check it out! I found this pattern at Marcia Hohn’s Quilter’s Cache (a great site by the way). In respect to copyright, Marcia Hohn’s instructions are included here, and the link to her web page, too. http://www.quilterscache.com/M/MyBlueHeavenBlock.html
