Get-Away Deadline, March 10
Posted By Margaret on March 5, 2010
It won’t be long now till our annual Get-Away Weekend at Bristol Harbour overlooking Canandaigua Lake. The deadline for sign up is coming up fast, March 10. It’s not too late to join us for a relaxing weekend of quilting and pampering. We’re celebrating our 5th anniversary with more extras than ever before, which has drawn our largest ever crowd yet of quilters and crafters. I for one, can’t wait until April 9, when the fun begins! Go to the Get-Away Weekend page on this website to find out more and click here to download the signup brochure.
Get ready for spring with this month’s Bag Lady class on Friday, March 12, from 10am-3pm at Jackie Lynn’s. We’re making this versatile “green” Market Tote. This airy tote bag is made from petscreen mesh and a fat quarter. Petscreen is a durable vinyl mesh used on patio screen doors and available at your local hardware store. It makes a great tote for the market or to carry your groceries, but it’s also handy for toting around crafts or beach items or makes a great gift bag that is reusable.
The March S.A.B.L.E. Club (or stash amassed beyond life expectancy) is another quilt from the book Twin Peaks: Quilts from Easy Strip-Pieced Triangles by Gayle Bong. It’s an incredibly easy way to make a tumbling blocks quilt with no set-in piecing and no triangles to sew…it’s all strip-pieced. Gather your favorite collection of fat quarters and join us on Saturday, March 13, from 12 -5 pm, for this month’s S.A.B.L.E. Club at Jackie Lynn’s.
