Completed leaf block for a drawing (If you bring a block, a tree’s worth of quilty leaves could be won!)

As in years past, we are inviting members to make and bring with them a 6-inch finished (6.5-inch unfinished) block for a drawing. This year we have chosen the very easy maple leaf block shown below. Color suggestions: fall colors (reds, oranges, yellows, or green) for the leaf, and blues or creams (light or medium) for the background.

For easy instructions on constructing the block, please visit the following link or consult your favorite quilting resource:

https://www.diaryofaquilter.com/classic-maple-leaf-quilt-block-tutorial/ (6 inch block)

We will also have a quilt-themed gift basket drawing (suggested donation $2.00) and door prizes for attendees, as well as beverages and desserts to go with your brown bag lunch.

So please join us in our new meeting space at the Lutheran Church in Ellsworth! We look forward to seeing your lovely faces (not on zoom!).

Please RSVP by 10/1 to one of the following HCQ members so we know how many to plan for:

Speaker : Linda Throckmorton – After moving to Cutler, Maine in 1975, I had to redirect my competitive spirit. I learned to quilt using sewing skills I’d had for 32 years. My teachers were 2 women, with whom we were founders of PTQG at the 1977 quilt show. Besides building and running Gingham, my fabric shop, I entered every block contest I found. My entries in the Hoffman Challenge began with their third year, lasting until they went digital, just before COVID. I served as the Area 5 Representative and Special Events committee for 14 years.
