New Meeting Event!
"Cookie Exchange"
Let us introduce you to our COOKIE EXCHANGE!
Our definition of a cookie is this: a 6 ½” block made of wee bits of fabric (aka CRUMBS!), all in the same color way. (Example photos attached). We will exchange blocks before the meeting starts with anyone who is willing. Colours will be assigned for each month.
This is all about scrap management and reducing waste – let’s make some scrappy quilts using “cookies” (there are many setting ideas on Pinterest). By exchanging with others, we can increase the scrappiness factor!
Just a note, if you can’t make the meeting and want to participate, please enlist a friend to help you. The committee will not be able to make exchanges on your behalf!
These cookies are fast, easy and uses up crumbs. What’s better than that!
Swap at the meeting, or donate toward a charity quilt. Your choice!
Let’s plan to gather and swap at 7:00 at the front of the room.
Past Month’s Colours:
September: Yellow or Orange
October: Orange or Red
November: Red or Green
Show and tell presentation

-
Send photos of your creations by the Sunday prior to the meeting to be included in the monthly presentation. (email above)
