Just came home from a Sawtooth Sisters Quilt Guild "meeting". A very laid-back group - no dues, no officers, no judged quilt show. Our last public project was donating a baby quilt to the first baby born on National Quilting Day. I'm hoping to get a picture soon - we'll see if it gets on the blog.
The following are notes to myself WRT future meetings at the Taylor County Extension Office:
April 15- Sit and Sew pillowcases for 4H 10am-2pm
May 6- Collect fabric for Seven sister strip Swap, check fabric selection for French Braid and give cutting instructions, give supply list for May Mystery class 10am-2pm
May 20- Return cut strips for strip swap - May Mystery class 10am-2pm and 4-8pm
June 3- French Braid, Braid in a Day class 10am-2pm
June 17- Sit and Sew or Field Trip to Pieceful Valley
Today's supply list for French Braid lap robe 52 x 84
2 1/2 yards for outer border, binding and braid
1 yard for center squares and inner border
1/2 yard for top and bottom triangles or 2 fat quarters (I used two different colors)
11 half yards, shaded light to dark if desired, for braid. Add outer border fabric for a total of 12 fabrics in center braid.
I hope this helps somebody who wants to join us.
