Aprils Meeting

We had a fun night even though we were few in numbers.

State Quilt Fest opportunity quilt. You can get ticket's for the raffle at Quilt fest in October that will be at Zermatt Resort.  The quilt is all hand quilted.  Also the state is doing a charity project are are trying to get baby quilt nothing bigger than 45 X 60 and has to fit into a 2 1.2 gallon zip lock bag for police officers.  Heber police and Summit police both want 25 each and the state in general wants over 700 of these quilts.  They are for the officers to carry in their vehicles and when there is an accident or other situations when a child has to be removed from a home they will have these quilt to give the child.  I hope we can all help.  This is for a great cause.  You have 2 month to do them.  Any questions call Barb Murdock our area state rep.

Retreat MArch 8-9 @ The Homestead

Here are what the 2 options for the drunkers path at retreat look like.  The red and white one you need 1/2 yard of 2 fabrics.  For the one on the left you need a charm pack.  These will be fun to make.

Also for the design challenge that Sally is going to show us how to start at the retreat you need (4) 9x11 or bigger fabrics.  You want (2) light and (2) dark fabrics.  You want lots of contrast.  Sally is going to show us how to do a 1/2 square triangle method.  We are going to make blocks and then will exchange and then do another step.  This is all I know about it so far.  The design challenge will be due in October.
