  Christmas in July
  What better time to get started with making quilted Christmas stockings, table runners, wall hangings or small quilts—all perfect to offer for sale at the Great Gulfcoast Arts Festival in November or to save for our traditional PQG holiday gift exchange—or to use on your own gift list!
              Bring your own holiday fabrics to use, share or trade. We'll have plenty of examples and lots of holiday fabrics to help you get started. Plus, we have an abundance of holiday panels to use whole or cut apart.
               Brainstorm your ideas, find the fabric to use, and start putting together your ideas—while there's still plenty of time before GGAF and Christmas!
  SUPPLIES:
  • small collection from your stash of leftovers, scraps
  • a favorite small piece that you've been saving for
     something special -- suitable for centerpiece
  • your "must have" rulers, cutter, etc.
  • sewing machine, power cord, thread, standard supplies
  PQG will provide irons and ironing boards, cutting mats, rulers, a couple of cutters.

  Free Sewing Day + Sewing for Community Quilts
  Let's Focus on Pillow Cases, Drawstring Bags and Pin Basting
  • Public Library, 239 N. Spring St. at Gregory
  SOS offers a FREE day of FREE sewing and visiting with friends. Bring you own projects to work on.
            And please plan spending some time helping Community Quilts by cutting pillow case kits and drawstring bag kits. Plus, we will have raised tables for pin-basting some quilts for Community Quilts——and yourself if you have a quilt top ready! Feel free to bring a medium-to-large quilt top that's ready to turn into a "quilt sandwich" for free-motion quilting or hand quilting!
        The library is the perfect location! Ample tables in a large space, perfect spot for hand- or machine-sewing! Plus room to raise the tables for easy cutting and pin basting as a group. We’ll pin-baste the first quilt as a group and work on more as time allows––depending on how many show up to help. Sign up online or at monthly meetings.
  SUPPLIES: If you plan to bring your own quilt for pin basting: be sure to bring about 300 small quilting pins (a slight curve on one side makes quilt-pinning easier). Experienced "pinners" seem to prefer Dritz brand 1-1/8 inch. (You need to supply your own pins because you'll be taking them home with you. ) Plus you might want to bring on old teaspoon or a Kwik Klip for closing and opening the pins. And don't forget your quilt batting and the quilt backing. Both should be at least 8 inches larger than your quilt top in both directions, basically 4 inches per side. Please bring your sewing machine, power cord, standard sewing supplies, favorite rulers and cutters. We'll have cutting boards & rotary cutters, irons, and ironing boards.
  •••••Did you know that WFPL now has a Makerspace at the downtown branch? They feature long arm machine quilting and table quilting. And it's FREE! Take of tour of the space while you there for this SOS. To learn more or to book a session, just send email to sewing@mywfpl.com. If you don't already have a library card, this would certainly be a great reason to get one!

  Let's All Help Community Quilts
  What a great way to get some practice with your machine-quilting skills—now that we're getting monthly quilting lessons from Cena Harmon. The quilt sandwiches will be ready to go, each of us will aim to finish one quilt that day! And then perhaps take another to finish at home.
        We will also offer a refresher on adding the binding by machine for anyone interested. The binding is all machine done because the quilts will be well loved and well used . . . and should be ready for machine washing! Learn to master your own walking foot.
          And to round out the day, we will have lots of pillowcases ready to sew and instructions for making drawstring bags.

  SUPPLIES:
  • your "must have" rulers, cutter, etc.
  • sewing machine, power cord, thread, standard supplies
  PQG will provide irons and ironing boards, cutting mats, rulers, a couple of cutters.
