August Meeting Recap

A quick recap of the August meeting held last night:

WORKSHOP
A big thank you to Courtney HERE for teaching the foundation piecing workshop and providing the beautiful journal cover as a giveaway.  I have posted a picture of the journal and some of the show & tell pictures over on Flickr CMQG Group On Flickr.


BOM
Our first block-of-the-month (BOM) event was a big success with 14 blocks turned in.  Congrats to Kat for winning the gorgeous collection of granny square blocks.  The September BOM is the Japanese X and + block.  The tutorial can be found HERE.  The color scheme is BRIGHT/SCRAPPY and according to the tutorial the blocks should finish at 7 1/2" (8" with seam allowances).

Bianca matched the BOM color scheme - love it!


UPCOMING SWAP
The September swap will be MUG RUGS.  More information will be coming shortly.


NEXT MEETING (Note time change)
The September meeting will be on Thursday, September 27 at 6:30.  Please note it is 30 minutes later than usual because of a group using the room prior to our meeting.  The meeting will be held at the Morrison Library.


SEPTEMBER SEW-IN
Our next sew-in is coming up on Saturday 9/15 from 10-2.  It will be held at Carmel Presbyterian Church on Carmel Road.  Hope to see you there!
