Hi everyone,

Has anyone every been involved in a group quilt? Our committee is working on a diversity quilt. There will be 4 panels about 3 ft wide and 4 ft high.

In this panel there will be squares, about 8 inches all around (finished size). We would like to distribute material and instructions to have departments make their own square. How do we instruct the people that have never quilted?

Any input would be appreciated! Thanks, Debbie

Make a list Do's and Don'ts that go with the block Like when you need it back by, (there's always stragglers)Don't do anything within seam allowances,,, Do use Pigma pens: not crayons,, have Fun with it I was asked to put one of these together for our school quilt was done,binded and was adding quilt label when received two more blocks less than a week before SURPRISE retirement party Needless to say he received to pillows to go with the quilt! SURPRISE

No, I like to make mine own, not a joiner.

We just did one here on the board, it's call "virtual farm quilt" look it up on the search at the top of the board. We did an awesome job on it, when the quilting is completed on it we're going to donate it to be auctioned for breast cancer research. tcharlie did a great job organizing this group effort, PM her and ask her help in organizing your group project. Enjoy your project :) :) :)

Thanks for your reply. I never heard of Pigma pens but I will look for those. Thanks again. Debbie
