Scarves for Magdalene
Magdalene is the Comfort Dog of the Cornerstone Lutheran Church.
We have been making scarves that attach to her collar for the six days a week she is working to comfort in our community and elsewhere.
Please pick up a kit at the monthly meeting or make one (or several) on your own. Instructions are on our website under “Patterns” and printed copies are available with the kits. Please note, the pattern was updated when Magdalene turned two years old.

March Meeting: In March, our program will include the introduction of this year’s Challenge Quilt Theme, as well as some fun ‘get to know you activities’. The Challenge Quilt Reveal (when you show your creation) will be in July, so there is lots of time this year! Programs:On March 10 in our Guild Meeting we will introduce the theme for our Guild Challenge Quilt. For those new to the guild, each year we have a challenge quilt program, open to all, with participation by all encouraged. This year the challenge will run from its introduction in March, to the reveal (basically a show and tell) of each challenge quilt creation in our July guild meeting. The goal of having a challenge is to encourage creativity and it’s fun to see how the theme is interpreted by each of our members! There is no right or wrong in this – so please plan to participate! If you can’t make it to the March meeting, please look for this year’s challenge theme on the website following the March meeting. Also, at our March meeting we will have some fun ‘getting to know you’ activities so please come prepared to meet new friends!

There are still a few spots open for this workshop and you can sign up=&0=& Sign-ups will be available at the March meeting, so please bring cash or a check to sign up at that time. There are panels available in our storeroom that can be used for the workshop BUT ONLY IF the end result will be a quilt made for charity. Also, there will be some panels available for sale ($5) at the Steals and Deals table, for use if you’d like to make a quilt that you may keep (not donate).

The winter is flying by, I see signs of spring- My daffodils and crocuses are peeking out through the remaining snow last weekend. The cold kept me in, I had so much fun piecing and quilting instead of going places. I have been inspired by pictures and posts in my social media feeds from Quilt Con and AQS to continue trying new ideas.
Please join the Quilts of Valor Committee in sewing a quilt for a deserving Veteran. We will meet on March 6th from 9:30 a.m. to 2:20 p.m. in the Community Room in the Community North Health Pavilion:

My 5-year-old granddaughter is starting hand sewing together. In my efforts to
