March meeting came and went with laughter and fun had by all you attended the sewing's each week and our monthly meeting and sew in. At our meeting the topic of conversation ranged from providing the group with doughnuts when a personal phone goes off, to placemats for meals on wheels and how the Utah quilt guild quilt show went.
UFO #8 was drawn, how is your Unfinished projects pile coming along? The OTTO light went to Laurie Bashein and Sue Hales we look forward to seeing what they Otto to have done this pat month.
A fun history of Scandinavia hand work was presented along with some sewing tips we should all read through and learn from.
Marches sewing tips and tricks:
To store a matching spool and bobbin together, thread both onto a long pipe cleaner and twist the pipe cleaner ends together.
If you like to tuck the thread tail back into the spool edge when you are finished with that thread, but often find it difficult to locate the slit. Mark the slit with a pen or pencil so it stands out where you can see it.
TEMPLATE: Floor tiles makes the best templates. Press paper pattern onto the adhesive side of a self-stick floor tile. Cut the template out on the line with scissors or utility knife. These templates are sturdy and can be used with a rotary cutter. Note: Mark your template- Half hexagon, etc.
