Stitch Party & Block Swap
February 26th, 2009
Tomorrow night is our second monthly Stitch Party! We had so much fun with all of you last month
, we hope you’ll join us again. As usual, there will be goodie bags and door prizes. Please stop by from 5-8 PM, have a snack and a drink, hang with other crafty folk, and show off what you’ve been working on!
Stitch Party also marks the start of our brand new Block Swap! The swap takes place over the next 6 months. Each month you will make and swap 12 nine-patch blocks, either from our recommended prints or from your stash. At the end, you will have 72 unique blocks to make into a new quilt top. We have chosen an inspiration fabric, to give us a color scheme and lend cohesion to our scrappy quilt! It only costs $5.00 to participate in 6 months of swaptastic goodness!
Sign-ups start at Stitch Party, but if you can’t make it you can still participate. Just stop by the shop for all the details!
See you at Stitch Party!
