 Please join the “Applaconners” Chapter of The Appliqué Society, which will meet once a month at the La Conner Quilt & Textile Museum, 703 2nd St, La Conner, WA. Bring along a 
project to work on or for Show ‘n Tell. We will have an appliqué quilt from our permanent collection on display. This month’s quilt is Centennial Quilt. A red, white, and blue beauty made with patterns cut from the newspaper in the early 1930′s. The patterns, called Old Glory were designed by Mary Erckenbrack and appeared in the Seattle Star. It features white stars appliquéd onto red circles, which are appliquéd to a blue square. The alternate blocks have an embroidered motif for each state. This quilt, and the original newspaper patterns, will be on display on our first floor through September 2010.
Day Group meets the 3rd Thursday, 9:00 am – 11:00 am (stay longer if you like.) Location: La Conner Quilt & Textile Museum, 703 2nd St, La Conner, WA. Call 360-466-4288 for details.
