Alison Glass, Not Your Grandmother's Log Cabin, June 2016

This month Barbara demonstrated a block called "Not your Grandmother's Log Cabin". I was not personally there, but I am sure that the meeting was great. This block makes a really unique layout and is perfect for prints or solids.

Hearts for Pulses

PMQG donated Hearts for Pulses blocks

Our treasurer, Suzie is coordinating for our guild's Heart for Pulses blocks to send to  the OrlandoMQG Heart's for Pulses Charity drive. They will be donating quilts to the people that were affected by the shooting in Orlando.  We will be making these heart blocks together after the next meeting, and you can bring them with you also. All you need to do is bring your sewing machine. 
We will be using the 10" block from Cluck Cluck Sew tutorial We are asking that the heart to be in a bright color and the background to be white or low volume.
