Please join us Thursday at the Urbandale Library--
Member Emily Vardeman will be giving the program on English Paper Piecing. She will be demonstrating her methods; Emily is providing the paper pieces, but please bring:
6 rectangles--2"x3" for a star shape OR
7 squares-- 2.5" for a hexagon flower shape
thread
needle
scissors
In addition we will be taking nominations for next year's officers. And, as always, remember to bring something to Show and Share!
6:30 pm, Urbandale Library (meeting officially starts at 6:50 p.m.)
One more thing, the Modern Quilt Guild is conducting their annual survey of members worldwide, please follow this link to complete the survey--THANKS!
I'm wondering how many of each fabric is needed for the star? It looks like there are 5 different fabrics in the picture. Please let us know how many light, medium, dark, etc. rectangles are needed. I guess visualization isn't my strength. Thanks
ReplyDeleteSherry, we'll just be making one small star so you'll only need 6 pieces of one fabric or six different if you want each point to be different or you could do 3 of one and 3 of another.
ReplyDeleteThat makes sense. Thanks
ReplyDeleteI pulled the pics from Emily's flickr stream, so I might have mislead by pulling the awesome British star--but I couldn't resist it.
