Friendship Star Program

When we have guild members who move out of the area, we like to send them off with a reminder of their lasting friendships within the guild.  The member moving away selects a fabric (color way, type of print etc) and guild members sew friendship star blocks (the guild block) using unbleached muslin as the background and the member’s choice as the star.  Each member also signs the block using a black pigma pen in one of the corner squares of muslin.

Detailed instructions for how to construct the block can be found by clicking the link below, and are also printed in the membership directory.  I have muslin that is pre washed and pressed and ready to create blocks, you can get it from me at a guild meeting or I can mail a piece to you.  When your blocks are complete, I will either collect them at guild meetings or you can put them in snail mail (please note my McKinney address will be in the new directory, it’s not in the one from last year!) to me; one block will mail nicely in a letter sized envelope with one stamp.

Help us create a lasting memory for guild members who move away from the area!

September 2007 –  I'll mail both of these after the September meeting.

Collecting for Pam Loburk

Pam would like natural shades of greens with the muslin background.

Collecting for Sylvia Steele who is moving to the Austin area.

Sylvia would like tonal fabrics (like a moda marble, no distinct print) with the muslin background.  The color choice is up to you, just make sure that it is a tone on tone with no identifiable print in the fabric.  Don’t forget to sign your blocks!
