The 30th Anniversary Recycle Challenge has been extended until March, so if you still want to make one or make more to be displayed at the quilt show, bring them for show & tell and turn them into Cindy. I hope to get pictures of the ones collected at the last meeting posted on the website within the next week. I’ve been on vacation and am trying to catch up on everything!
See you all on Thursday!
Guidelines:
- Finished size: 6” square (this includes any embellishments added to the edges).
- 3 layers, quilted (it’s usually easier to quilt first and then add the items).
- The number 30 must be depicted somewhere on the square (30 items, the number 30, be creative).
- Made entirely out of recycled items and supplies you already have (you cannot buy anything to include in the square).
- Label on back with name and list of items used.
- Deadline: August 5th meeting, bring to meeting for show and tell, I will collect the squares, take pictures and post on the website, and keep them to display at the quilt show in May. If you won’t be at the August meeting, give to a friend to bring or make arrangements to get it to me before the meeting.
- Make as many as you want.
- Don’t worry about what the back looks like … it’s usually a challenge to figure out how to attach unusual items and be neat at the same time!
- Be creative and have fun!
Contact me (Cindy Larsen) if you have any questions.
We’re kicking off our 30th Anniversary this month. Stay tuned for upcoming events celebrating this milestone.
