Peninsula Piecemakers Quilt Guild

FREE!! FREE!! FREE!! FREE!! FREE!! FREE!!
The Peninsula Angel Quilters have received an abundance of donations over the last two weeks, a lot of it from the husband of a former member, Anne Jones. There is quilting stuff galore! Sewing machines, fabrics of all kinds, misc. crafting supplies, linens, small decorative pillows, table runners, rug samples (which we have heard will be used as hot pads for crockpots, cat scratching mats, placemats and bags to name a few ideas!), stamps, and more!! They are about 4 blocks west of the guild meeting building at 45 Main Street. They will be staying open late on Tuesday so that guild members can get a chance to pop in before they head to guild! Tuesday, November 11th they will be open from 10 am to 6 pm, Thursday, November 13th they will be open from 9 am to 5 pm and Tuesday the 18th and Thursday the 20th they will be there from 10 to 4. November 20th is the last day to grab stuff! If you cannot make it during their hours, please contact Calie and she will happily go over to 45 Main Street and let you in, if you make an appointment!

Carla Klop from LaBelle, FL joined us this week as our National Speaker. She did a wonderful trunk show and gave us a glimpse into how she makes half square triangles using the strip method. She will be teaching the Shortcut Sheet Method class tomorrow to those guild members who paid for the class. Thank you to Carla for a wonderful lecture.
