January 11 Meeting - Round Robin

The first meeting of 2017 will feature a Round Robin of techniques presented and demonstrated by four of our members.

 • Carolyn Mangler  - “Jelly Roll Quilt” - Learn how to make a quick, cute quilt top with your jelly rolls.  Adding some surprise extras makes it special.  She will also present, “Making Half Square Triangles”  This block is used in many complex blocks.  However, making the HST’s one by one can become tedious. There are several methods to making lots of HST’s at once and Carolyn will demonstrate how to make HST's from a tube, make 8 HST’s at once, and squaring up your HST’s quickly and easily. 

 • Jan Thompson – “Dying Lace” – Hands on demo. Have fun learning to dye a piece of  lace you can use in a quilting project. It is an easy and inexpensive way to add a technique  to your repertoire.  

• Debra Van Tassel - "Microwave Bowl Potholders” These handy all-cotton holders will protect your hands from getting burnt when removing a bowl from the microwave.  They can be made in several sizes and also serve as cozies to keep your soup, stew or  cereal warm - or your ice cream cold!

 • Kelly Brown - “How to Square a Quilt”- Kelly will share her method for squaring a quilt. This was a topic on the 2016 survey that many people requested! 

Join us for a fun night! Guests are encouraged to attend for a nominal fee of $10. Join us at Good Sam’s, 1901 Ptarmigan Trail, Wednesday, January 11, at 6:30 pm.
