Our first Mad Adders meeting is October 4. Up until then, we are operating based on what the RT team has posted on his website and in FB. letsquilttogether.com
Here is what intrigues me right now.... the form that we get to fill out
The Manifest
A form will be provided so that each participant can create a manifest (a guide) that states some wishes or guidelines. These wishes could be things like: preferred size limitations (due to hanging space), landscape orientation, portrait orientation, or square. Other aspects such as a “theme” (leaves, triangles, water, Halloween, etc), could be suggested. It is vital that the originator does not request too many restrictions. The more freedom the team has, the more fun the process will be—and the greater the surprise will be at the end. Source: https://www.letsquilttogether.com/sh...dders-2023-24/
The dollar store has a laundry bag that zips that can be used as a tote and there is a draw string bag there, too if you prefer something smaller and more water proof to ship our works of art.
I would like to suggest that we each send a small piece of muslin with our starter piece so we can sign our names if you want to add a label to the back of the project when all is said and done. If you have no muslin, a piece of light colored fabric, any color, will work, too. I know I would love to be able to bag about you all and our creation and the label will make it easier.

Wow,
First things first, huge thanks to Patrica and Janet for their support in our venture. I love how quilters always jump in to help others. Always a big thanks to Ibex for keeping us in top turtle formation 😊.
The zippered bag from the dollar store sounds great; may I ask which chain you saw it in?
Getting close to the kickoff time! 😆

Dollar Store -- everything is $1.25 here instead of $1.00. I also noticed that helium balloons have jumped to $1.50! Inflation!!

A herd of turtles is called a bale!
