Quarterly Challenges
December 2022 Quarterly Challenge:
QUILTED POSTCARD EXCHANGE
Inspired by Sarah Ruiz’s 100 Days of Creative Bliss presentation, we’re having another Quilted Postcard Exchange!
We will pair you with a member of Twin States MQG or New Hampshire MQG to send and receive quilted postcards for the holidays!
Need a refresher on how to make quilted postcards? Follow Sarah Ruiz’s tutorial!
The postcard(s) you make must be mailed by December 1st so we can all share them at our December guild meetings!
If you post photos to Social Media please use the hashtag #2022QuiltPostcardSwap @capitaldistrictmqg so we can all see your work!
September 2022 Quarterly Challenge:
Make a Winter Holiday Project!
Who has time to sew winter holiday themed things in December?
Let’s sew them in the summer instead!
Make a mini quilt, a table runner, throw pillows, a tree skirt, stockings, placemats, for your whole family... Anything your heart desires!
Use any winter holiday theme: Christmas, Winter Solstice, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, St. Lucia Day, Thanksgiving, New Years Eve, etc!
It’s more fun sewing with friends:
Work on your holiday projects during our Open Sew Day
on August 7th from 2-6pm at the Brunswick Community Library.
Finished projects are due at our September or October meeting.
