2010 Christmas in July Party is extended to August

The Ohio Star quilt pattern will be the theme of the Christmas in July party, 2010. Every year, around the first of the year, we challenge each other to make a quilt from a chosen pattern. All members make some kind of quilt to be shown at our annual party, normally held in July.

This year will be an exception as one of our members, Joan, who has moved to Florida, will be traveling through Louisville on August 10th. So we've decided to make that day our party and share our Ohio Star quilts with her and we also decided to make a show and tell of any of the quilts we have made since she's been gone.

Tuesday, August 10th, we will be meeting in the lower level at church for the party. Mrs Murphy's Salad will be what is served and here is the list of items to bring:

This is copied from the sign up sheet last time:

We are looking forward to seeing Joan again and all the quilts that have been created by this very talented group.

The Paris Bag Class

Every month our group tries to go on a trip in the area or have a learning opportunity. Besides that we like to finish what we have started and so we always have a sit n sew, where you bring in anything you are working on, quilting, embroidery, knitting or needlepoint, besides people all types of needle crafts are welcome.

This last month Mary taught us how to make the Paris Bag pattern.

We also had a few people that got their quilts back from the favorite quilter so this is a show and tell for quilts as well.

Want to join a fabulous group of ladies and learn about quilting? Then come see us at Northeast Christian Church.
