The next meeting is February 25, 2024.

Our February event includes both a Sew Day and Regular Meeting at Home Inn and Suites (253 Willis Crescent). Come and Go from 9 am to 8 pm (free for members) with a Lunch Break at 12 pm and Meeting from 2 to 4 pm.

Please RSVP for the sew day via smbirnie@gmail.com. Members that are only able to attend the meeting should arrive by 2 p.m. Try to remember to bring your name tags! We encourage our members to wear their own stitched name tags.

We are kickstarting the Ugly Fabric Challenge. If interested, bring a fat quarter of your ugly fabric in a plastic Ziploc baggie with your name written on the front of it to the February meeting. You will go home with someone else’s ugly fabric and the challenge is to create something for them using that fabric and fabrics of your own. You will give your creation to them at the April meeting. The Scrappy Word Challenge has also started. For this, you have until November to say something with a quilted project … a word for this year, a phrase of a song, a line of a poem, a quote, a name, etc.

Note below that everyone is invited to participate in the Education topic this month.

Meeting Agenda

• Icebreaker – What is something on your quilting bucket list?
• Education – Rulers. Members will participate in a show & tell session featuring their favourite ruler(s), perhaps ones they have never used, and possibly ones they didn’t enjoy. Let’s learn from each other’s experiences.
• Show & Tell and Book, Blog, or Bolt – Show us what you’ve made and your works in progress. We all want to know what new and interesting things YOU know about. If you have thought about the scrappy word challenge, please share your progress to get others excited to participate.
• Membership Renewals by Feb. 29, and Accepting Registration for March Retreat. Please email if you aren’t renewing as we have someone on our wait list
