September's Twilight Pumpkin Patch Placemat


September's meeting will be a hands-on project where you can let your creativity flow.  The guild will be furnishing the foundation to make one placemat.  If you enjoy the process and want to make more, supply information will be available at the meeting. 





What to bring: 

Lots of 2 inch squares! 
  • Approximately 75 two inch squares in a variety of blues
  • Approximately 50 two inch squares in a variety of oranges, golds, yellows, and rust
  • Two or three green two inch squares for the stems
  • A Clover Mini Iron or other LOW voltage iron
  • A few pins for the diagonal pieces that will be sewn at home
  • A large ironing surface or piece of Warm & Natural batting (25 x 17). Bring a larger piece if you have it available so it will cover your entire table and help out your quilting friends.
  • Extension cord for your iron
If you can, bring a few extra squares of your colors to place in a basket in case we have visitors.  We want them to enjoy our meeting and be able to participate.  This will also help if you do not have enough variety.  Put one in...take one out! 

This project will be completed at home.  No sewing machines needed at the meeting.

See you in September!
