I had fun yesterday at a workshop for our community quilts projects.
We met at the home of one of the coordinators; we sewed, we quilted, we made quilt kits of donated blocks with strips for borders, we made labels, we chatted and laughed....
Then we enjoyed a lovely pot luck lunch with homemade soup, salads, a variety of breads and many lovely desserts! Yummmmmmmmm.
I is always hard to pack for one of these days, and I always forget things that I really need. Fortunately, I didn't forget anything really important, and our hostess had lots of items that could be borrowed. I'm glad she has a huge quilting space (almost the entire basement) as she has tons of bins full of pre-cut squares and strips just waiting for a home in a quilt.
Our guild has one or two "block of the month" challenges per year, with simple blocks in bright colours, destined for one of the many community quilts made each year.
Sounds like a fun and productive workshop!
