Upcoming events

ROW BY ROW

This year, instead of doing a round robin challenge, we will be working on a Row by Row quilt challenge. There will be no passing from quilter to another. Rules are simple: Decide on whether you want to do 6 rows of 9" by 36", 3 rows of 18" by 18" blocks, or a combination of both. Each month you will be given three songs for inspiration for that month's challenge. During our meetings, we will have a table set up for everyone participating to display their round for everyone to see and get inspiration. Looking forward to seeing everyone's ideas.

Month 1, the songs are: "Take Me Home, Country Road" by John Denver, "West Virginia, My Home Sweet Home" by Julian G. Hearne, and "Hills of West Virginia" by Phil Ochs.

Month 2, the songs are: "Thank God I'm a Country Boy" by John Denver, "Wild West Virginia" by Daniel Johnston, and "Country Boys Can Survive" by Hank Williams.



YARD SQUARE QUILT CHARITY AUCTION

The YSQ Charity Auction will be held on Saturday, August 31, 2024 at 2:00 pm at Berkeley Springs State Park.
