Block of the Month Fox & Geese Block of the Month laid out with members' contributions, March 15, 2009 |
At the November 8th meeting, Sandy Peotter presented the BOM for Paula Ensign. It is a Pinwheel Block using 30’s reproduction fabrics. The blocks will be used to make baby quilts to donate to families who lose a baby to fetal demise or parents of infants that are critically ill and have to be medivaced to Anchorage. Members are to provide additional reproduction fabrics. If you need a BOM packet, please stop at Flying Geese. |
| Each month we have a new block of the month in order to learn different techniques, make new blocks and share pieces of a future quilt. Organized by Peg Weston this year, each month a Block of the Month (BOM) volunteer presents instructions and most of the fabric to make the block. At the next meeting, the blocks are laid out and anyone who brings a block puts their name in for the drawing. A name is drawn and the winner gets all the blocks! Sometimes members enter "service" into the drawing so our BOM pieces will be sewn in a quilt for a service quilt recipient. We need volunteers for this fun project which we all enjoy. The Guild does reimburse your expenses for this. Four months are designated to be “double” blocks, which means that members make two blocks: one for the drawing and the other for service quilts. Shown below are two recent BOM patterns laid out during a monthly meeting. To pick up the fabric & instructions, go to Flying Geese quilt shop in Kodiak. Results will be shared at the next meeting. |
