Christmas pot luck, Wednesday, Dec.6 at 6:00pm (note early start)

The Christmas pot-luck will be our last meeting of the year.  Where has the time gone?

Our meeting is next week: Wednesday, December 6th. and it will be a Christmas potluck starting at 6:00pm.  Bring a dish to share and there is a microwave and stove available to keep things hot. Tea and coffee will be supplied.

If you have not renewed your membership you will need to do it at this meeting as we have to renew our membership with the mother ship and we want to ensure that everyone has access to the wonderful things available to members on the MQG website.  Please see Dona-Mae to renew your membership.

Bring your mug rug and mug for the exchange. It will be fun to see what people have chosen to create and pair with a mug.  Everyone that is participating will receive a mug and rug in return.

If you want to take part in the "paint chip" challenge, Dona-Mae will have paint chips available at the meeting.  This challenge will be due at our January meeting (Jan. 3).

So - be sure to bring:
-your entry for the mug rug exchange
-a dish to share
-your own plate/eating utensils/cup
-your show and share
 
See you on Wednesday for social time, fun, food and laughs.

What a busy, busy meeting!

At our meeting on Wednesday we:


  • signed up for our sew-in on Nov. 18.  If you haven't signed up contact Carly (csimon@live.ca)
  • we decided that we would celebrate at next month's meeting with a pot-luck and will begin at 6:00pm
Challenges launched:
  •  make a mug rug with a Christmas theme, or anything else, team it with a mug and wrap it for the December meeting.   All member that participate will get another mug and rug in the exchange.
  • Dona-Mae began the paint chip challenge. We blind-picked a multi-colour paint chip and will make either a post card, mug rug, placemat, wall hanging (your choice) using only the colours on the paint chip..  This will be due at the January meeting - some of us got "challenging" colours.  😱
Come and join us and flex your modern quilting self.
