February Meet-and-Sew

« Back to calendar « Previous Event | Next Event »
Saturday February 11, 2012 10:00 AM - 5:00 PM
481 Hwy 105, Unit 202, Monument, CO 80132  (map)

(LOCATION CHANGE: It's where we met in November, in a shopette, next to the Domino's Pizza (Unit 202), west of Taco Bell in Monument!)


:DHAPPY BIRTHDAY!!:D


Yup. We're a whole year old! Yay! Thank YOU for being with us for this wonderful ride. Since it's our Birthday Party, we will have refreshments and a few birthday presents, too. :P


For the February Meet-and-Sew (see location change), we will have the regular guild meeting and show-and-tell, but we will cut it short so we can have a little "Yard Sale" at the end. Check the Forum for more details, but it's a great chance for you to sell some modern, high quality fabric that you know you won't use anymore. You will have to price your own fabric, and bring your own table. And you will HAVE to Rsvp to reserve a spot!


Because of the location change, please :roll: bring your own chair or stool or cushion to sit on. We're sorry to have to do this, but we roll with the changes, you know? :) And if you've got an extra chair to bring, that would be awesome!


Then, after the break, we'll pull out our sewing machines (see location change) and proceed to work on whatever project needs doing! Please also tuck in an extension cord, if you've got it. The Shop Space (see location change) has great space for laying out quilts to baste, or for laying out your pieces to see how it works.  Because of the location change, please bring a table and a chair, if you have one. We'll do what we can to provide, but if you can help, that would be super!

 

As usual, if you can only come for part of the meeting, please do!

 

Angie at Crafty Laine is generously offering us a 10% discount for anything we purchase that day, so if you can, take some time to run over to her shop and pick up some beautiful new fabric!


We are a dues-collecting guild, so if you are not yet a member and would like to join, please bring $25 to the meeting. Your first meeting is free, and future meetings will cost $5 each. Or just become a member... Also, only dues-paying members will have full access to the website and forum discussions. Members can win prizes, participate in swaps and challenges, get guild discounts at various fabric stores, etc. It pays to join.

As always, please leave a comment below and let us know you'll be there to celebrate our birthday, and if you plan to sell any fabric. And don't forget about the location change!


(as of Feb 9, 34 attending)

Hi. I was just getting ready to leave Denver and re-checked the road conditions and they appear to have worsened in the last half hour. As a result, I don't think I will leave yet and will continue to monitor the conditions. If they improve, I may come late.

Hey! Looks like I will not be able to make it after all. Just moved from Tx and I am not ready to drive in the weather yet! Lol! Now I really sound like I am not from around here! Plus we have company tonight that I am very much not ready for! I did want to ask can I pay the dues to become a full member online or through paypal somehow?

Looks like I won't get to make it, my toddler broke his leg today and really is needing his mama right now, so a whole day out is not gonna work. Hope everyone has a blast!

Oh, Becky. That's awful! So incredibly awful. I'm sorry! :-( We'll miss you and look for you in March. I hope the Mama-loving helps heal his broken leg soon. :)

I'll be there as well, and as I'm driving down from Westminster (near 287 & 36), shoot me an email (beckycampbell@gmail.com) if you want to carpool, as long as you are fine with being back at my house by 2:30p

I'll be there! It is the first meeting for me. I'll bring a finished quilt for show & tell in case we have time and table and chair(s). Can't wait to meet people! :) Will renew as well...

I will attend but may be there after lunch more for the sew than the meeting. I do not have any tables so if we think this might be a regular need I might go buy one of those collapsing tables and bring a stool. I can bring an extension cord, too.


Lyn, this shouldn't be a regular thing. We should be able to go to The Hub on a regular basis, it's just that we couldn't get it this time. I've got 2 that I always bring, and others have one or two, so you don't need to buy one if you don't have a need for it. Thanks for offering, though!
