Member Blocks
If it fits in your
schedule, please make blocks for the following members to show
appreciation, congratulations or just to help cheer them up. The patterns can be found by
clicking here.
Anne Troy—Friendship
Block:
Anne has moved back to Pennsylvania, so we will be doing
farewell blocks for her. She has asked for batik or batik-like
fabrics and white. (She will continue to be the webbie until
someone can take her place.)
Monica Thomas—Magic
Nine Patch: For
diligently being our webmistress for so many years, she doesn't
want something for herself! She wants to make auction quilts to
raise funds for dog rescue groups. You can help by making 6-inch
finished (6˝" unfinished) Magic Nine Patch blocks in dog
fabrics, or doggy theme fabrics like fur, tennis balls, even
hearts or whatever you like. All colors are happily welcomed.
Dawn Byrd: Dawn feels
worse than before she had her first surgery, when we gave her
pink heart blocks. She'd love to hear from our members.
Roma Knee—Heart
Blocks: Roma had a steel rod surgically inserted into
her leg. She'd like heart blocks of either YOUR favorite fabric
or of cats, on a white background.
Carolyn May—Heart
Blocks: Carolyn had
recent surgery for ovarian cancer. Please make her purple, blue
and/or green hearts on a white background.
Aurelia Dett—Heart
Blocks: Aurelia is a
former FCQ member with a long recovery time from back surgery.
She would like bright batik hearts on bright batik backgrounds.
Mimi Dietrich—Heart
Blocks: Maria
O'Haver found that Mimi recently had surgery as a
result of breast cancer—her
second time. If you have an opportunity, make a
heart block for her and send to: Mimi Dietrich, 1337
Brook Road, Baltimore, MD 21228. We've chosen 7-inch
cream square with the colors of a traditional
Baltimore Album quilt.
Nancy Murdock—(New)
Friendship Block: Nancy has retired and is
moving to Michigan, probably in the spring. She prefers pink, blue or purple
with white.
