Note from MarjorieH:

There will be a meeting to prepare kits for Camp Quality (CQ)
Tuesday, July 21st
7:00pm

EVERYONE IS WELCOME TO COME
We would like your thoughts & ideas for organizing and presenting the kits, plus teaching the project

I will demonstrate and give you a chance to try two techniques for putting designs on fabric:
freezer paper stencils and silk screen
We will use these techniques to print designs onto felt for the CQ project

FOR THE MEETING:

Please bring yourself in old clothes (acrylic paint doesn't wash out)
(If you don't have any of the items listed below, don't worry--come anywayWe'll have plenty of materials for everyone)
We could use fabric scissors, exacto knives (or small paper scissors), cheap acrylic paints in flower colors, browns or greens, old irons, ironing pads or boards, and cheap foam paintbrushes

DONATIONS NEEDED:

We can always use felt pieces (larger than 4" x 6")

We need size 18-20 needles (chenille or tapestry) for the kits
I think we have a good quantity of perle cotton now
