March - April: Events, Swaps and Challenges!

We have so many fun things planned for you all in 2020! This month we have a lot happening, so here is the one place to find all the details:

Rowing Along: 2020's Group Sewing Event!
If you haven't yet signed up for Rowing Along, you'll need to do so ASAP! Sign-ups close on March 17. Email Catherine (catherinedutton@gmail.com) to sign up - just tell me that you're in. Bring your starter row to the April meeting along with your bag (distributed at the March meeting).

April Swap: Bunny Baskets
This has become an annual tradition for our guild. You'll make a small pouch, basket, or bucket and fill with 5-10 worth of spring goodies. See the post from last year for links to inspiration and tutorials!

Color of the Year: 1 yard Rip off
Bring 1 yard of fabric from one of the two colors of the year to our April meeting. We will introduce the color of the year and have a rip-off! You'll start with one fabric and leave with one yard's worth of 12 different pieces.

Colors are:
Classic Blue and Enchanted
