I have started a group at the school where I work, there are
so many teachers that sew, so I started the "Vernfield Quilter's"
We meet once a month, and during the month if someone
needs advice or just a show and tell they bring it into the office
for the "awe". We meet 4:00-7:00, bring either pot luck
or snacks. We meet in our Library which has great windows
and plenty of room. This is our fourth year, no money dues
or anything. But at the end of the school year when all the artwork comes off the walls, we give a little show of all the
projects we have done this year. I keep my little countertop
iron, and my old sewing machine in the closet, so if anyone
wants to use it, its available. We made one quilt for our Home and School to raffle off, and we made our principal a quilt for
letting us use the school. I also put out there the quilt show schedules, and ask if anyone needs to go for a fabric run every so often, and a couple of us may go, or just two. It has been great inspiration.
