February 2012 Meeting
Please join us on Friday, February 10th for a String Quilt workshop! Patricia Gabriel will teach a stash busting
workshop and show us how to make String Quilts. I've also sent the supply list, you will have to do some homework to before the workshop. You'll need to bring your sewing
machine and supplies in addition to precut fabric and batting. We'll have some cutting mats, irons and ironing boards available for sharing.
The workshop will be held from 9am to 4pm in the fellowship hall of the Presbyterian Church of the Covenant (501 South Mendenhall St, Greensboro).
Bring your bag lunch or plan to run out and pick something up.
The cost is $20 for PQG members and $30 for non-members. If you haven't already paid your 2012 membership you need to join now and save $10! An
