Stay for an hour or stay all day. Just be warned that if only a couple of people show up, we may pack up early and leave before noon. Cancellations will be posted on the guild's blog/website/Facebook page.

If you've never been to an open sewing session or a board meeting, this is a great time to stitch with your fellow MLQG members and learn about how the guild operates. Input from all guild members is always appreciated. If you like, bring a small dish/snack to pass for lunch while the group discusses guild activities.

Stone Soup Quilts

The guild's Stone Soup Quilts outreach projects is in full swing and guild members are having a great time working on these quilts! Several quilts have been completed thanks to Greta Marie T., Dawn P, Joyce W., and Peggi Y.! Other quilts are in various stages of completion, and some are waiting to be started. Don't miss out on the fun; guild members of all skill levels can help with the project. Pick up a kit from Susan Mc., or start your own Stone Soup Quilt with an easy throw-size (40ish x 50ish) quilt pattern, add some fabric "stones" from your stash (UFOs or orphan blocks would make good "stones" as well). Work on your quilt start to finish, or bring your work in progress to the next guild meeting for another guild member to work on.

Finished quilts will be distributed wherever there is a need throughout our community, such as CONCERN, nursing homes, Lap Robes for Veterans, etc.

Questions? Find more details by clicking on the Outreach tab at the top of this blog or contact Susan Mc., MLQG Outreach Chairperson (check your guild roster or newsletter for her contact info).

Check out these wonderful Stone Soup quilts that were recently completed by MLQG members!
