New MLQG Outreach Project

Let’s work together to help brighten the holiday meals for our local Meal on Wheels recipients by making quilted placemats! Placemats are quick and easy to make, only take scraps to make, are great for practicing your free-motion quilting skills, and they mean more to those who receive them than you will ever know! Use your favorite placemat pattern and the fabric of your choosing! Search “free quilted placemat patterns”on Google or Pinterest and prepare to be inspired! Break out of your box and try something new!

Placemats will be collected from now until December 14, 2020. Contact Susan Mc., Outreach Chair, for more information. Her contact info can be found in the guild newsletter and on the guild roster.
