SSQG Charity Project update

Hi Everyone,
Sending an update from the meeting this past week on the Sassi Strippers Charity Project.  Valerie Barth found a great  pattern by Judy Hopkins called Block Aid for use by guilds for non-profit community service projects.  This is a mystery charity project. On Thursday, April 21st, we ironed and cut up a good portion of the fat quarters that were donated into 5" squares.  This is the first instruction in the pattern.  If you could not make the meeting, but want to participate at home
you can bring your 5" squares to the next meeting. 
 
Also, the pattern called for a solid or "read as a solid" fabric for the next part of the pattern.  This requires about 2 5/8 yards for a double size.  If you would like to donate a solid for the next step bring it to the next meeting.  We may also check with wasted women to see if they have any solids they can donate to our cause. 
 
Thank you to all that participated and brought irons, ironing boards, mats and fabric.  This is a great group project and I am proud of the way the group all worked together.
 
Thank you again Becky Frederick for taking the box of donated fabric to store for the guild.
Hugs,
Linda
