It’s Comfort Quilt Day

January 28, 2024 Independence Hall Quilters

Monday, January 28th: Bring the supplies you need to use – if you are making kits, you will need a mat, ruler, and rotary cutter. If you want to piece a quilt, then bring your machine and the usual supplies.

If you have not seen this project in action, you are missing out on all the gorgeous colored fabrics spread out on the big table. My favorite part is choosing fabrics and a pattern to make a kit. I like to make the quilts at home because I’m too easily distracted by all the action going on in the Hall.

Mats, Rulers, and Cutters

Oh My! Yes, Monday the 19th is Comfort Quilt Kit Day. The guild supplies the fabric and the patterns. Members cut fabrics according to the pattern, so whoever checks out the kit can have everything they need to make the quilt top, back, and binding.

Take a peek at past years’ Comfort Quilt Cut days:

You may have noticed that we have way more room than cutters. Let’s remedy that this year, OK?

Cut Day a Success

September 18, 2021 Independence Hall Quilters

Many members stayed after the meeting to help Mary Sue and Donna make kits for comfort quilts and pillowcases. Nine large tables in the ‘dinning’ room were stuffed and overflowing with flannels, kids prints, flowers, bright polka-dots, bugs, hearts and a few more dignified styles for teens and adults.

Because yours truly was picking out bright and happy fabric for scrappy kid’s quilts, I remembered to take photos after most of our participants departed. The Hall looks deserted now, but we had a good turn out.

Busy Monday Coming soon…

Quarterly Business Meeting Sept. 20th. The Zoom Room will be open for the meeting at 10:00 am. Sue Duggan’s Trunk Show & the un-luncheon after the meeting. Bring your own lunch, chair to sit in and money in case there is a raffle!

Also last day to submit your Quilt Faire Entries!
