Welcome back to another exciting guild year! We're going to start everybody off with the first swap of the year, so get your holiday fabric stash out.
The
first swap will be quilted ornaments! In order to participate in the swap, you
must submit an ornament. You're welcome to submit more than one!
A
few guidelines to ensure a consistent swap:
- The ornament must be made from
fabric, with some sewing recommended. (Other materials can also be used
along with fabric. For instance, styrofoam, stuffing, pins, buttons, etc)
- Keep it simple! Please submit
ornaments (not wall hangings, not table runners) that are small and can be
hung up.
- Please include a hanging loop.
- Christmas and holiday fabrics
are welcome, but not a must!
- Finished size should be 3-4 square inches (roughly the palm of your hand)
I've
collected a few tutorials and ideas from across the internet. Feel free to use
these, or any fun ideas of your own. If you're unsure, reach out to me and we
can chat.
Make sure to wrap it, use a gift bag or envelope and submit it to me. Your
options are:
- at the October meeting,
- at the guild retreat
- or drop it at Lee's house by
November 16.
Please
include your name and email address. If you do not submit an ornament, you will
not receive one. We will do the swap at the November meeting, so that we can
display our ornaments during the holidays.
Have
fun!
