| November 17, 2012 Mid November Whew...just returned from our Challenge Event, "Cut The sCRAPs" luncheon at the Town Hall in South Londonderry. The entries were amazing! These gals are so talented and creative, not to mention, excellent cooks! The purpose of this challenge was for participants to use up their stash by cutting scraps into three sizes of squares, 5 inch, 3 1/2 inch and 2 inches. 2 1/2 " strips were also allowed. Background fabric could be added as well as borders. Project could be any size. We had quilts, books, pillows, bags, placemats, wall hangings and more. Here is our group...  Watching the presentations... We had a Viewers Choice Award...  Love the orange fabrics in the opposite corners! And here were our First, Second and Third Place Winners. Each prize was a gift certificate to the Waterwheel House.  From left to right, Second Place, First place and Third Place Winners! It was so hard to pick the winners....all of the entries were wonderful. Stay tuned for our next Challenge which will be announced soon!  Another entry. You can see more on our Facebook Page.

And last but not least...a new set of rubbing plates from Cedar Canyon. I can't wait to play with these critters and my paint sticks.  We are planning our new Block of the Month Programs as well as a fabric by mail program which would entail sending out each month Charm Squares of our latest fabrics. We are still "kicking" ideas around. Enjoy your Thanksgiving Holiday and we hope to see you soon! Remember to tell your Santa how much you would love to have a gift certificate to the shop as a present this year. Happy Sewing! Shelley |
