can come out plan to give them to the girls when they meet for the November sewing
session (11/13). The guild is providing
materials to make matching fleece beanies for the mom and baby. Thank you for embracing this charity and sharing
with these girls!

November
Program
– Tonight Amy introduced us to Lucy Boston and the art of English Paper Piecing
(EPP). Lucy Boston was a British
children’s author and quilter who combined the designs found in different
fabrics to make her unique ‘Patchwork of the Crosses’ blocks. Amy had many examples of these beautiful
blocks using contemporary fabrics. She
walked us through how to use a bi-fold mirror or open template frame to
audition fabrics and then use a template block to fussy-cut and design our own
blocks. The results were impressive and
she has already inspired many members to give this technique a try!
Looking
Ahead -
