Wow, we had such a great day here in the eQuilter classroom! A fantastic group of quilters showed up, drooled over our fabrics, picked out their favorites, and made quilts for hurricane victims. Next week we will work on layering and quilting these quilt tops, and we’ll start making more tops.
We have interest in having a regular sewing group so in addition to next Saturday’s planned Sewing Day, I will announce one or two more days in November.
Many thanks to Blakeman Sewing for providing today’s beautiful BERNINA machines, and we look forward to The Presser Foot bringing us machines next weekend. Much coffee was quaffed, many cookies and donuts were consumed, and many lovely quilts were made! Some of the ladies are going to take them home to finish, so we are sending them home with batting and backing. I am just amazed at how prolific this group has been here today.
Our eQuilter classroom is open to groups or individuals who would like to get together to sew comfort quilts, to be delivered by Mission of Love to those most affected by these recent hurricanes.
WE PROVIDE THE FABRIC!
Next Sewing Day:
Saturday 10/21 – 9 am to 4 pm – Presser Foot Longmont providing machines.
PLEASE call us (303-527-0856) or email Customer Service, and RSVP so we know how many sewing machines we need, how much coffee to brew, and how many cookies to bring for you!
Our big news is that we are putting together a calendar of classes, creative retreats and other events for our eQuilter Classroom. Some of the events we have planned for 2018 include a weekend class with Australian artist Lisa Walton (who is also the new President of SAQA), and a ‘Chromazone’ color forecasting conference for Color Marketing Group. Stay tuned!
sharing your Passion for Fabric…
Luana and Paul
