Gwendolyn has designed an easy veteran's quilt for us to do together. Blocks will be collected at the November and December meetings. Here are her instructions:
Let’s put together a group veteran’s quilt in the classic colors of red, white and blue. We’ll be using a pattern featuring pairs of half-square triangles in either red and white OR blue and white.
Cut two, 6-inch squares, one white, the other red or blue.
Draw a diagonal line on the back of the white square.
Stitch a quarter inch on either side of the diagonal line.
That’s it! Please do NOT cut the block apart. The blocks will be used in matched pairs and it will be easier to keep the patterns united if they remain uncut.
Thank you for participating.
Gwendolyn also says that at the last outdoor meeting, she left a large, green, flannel sheet. It was being used under the orphan blocks. If someone still has it, could you please email Gwendolyn Waranis so she can arrange to pick it up at the next meeting or sewing days? She won't be attending in person, but can stop by. Thanks!
