CVQ Block Exchange
Spread the Light ~ Share the Love
We often have some sort of exchange during our Holiday Social and this year shouldn't be any different. We invite our members to take part in a block exchange. The above pattern was created for the Phoenix Modern Quilt Guild and was used in a 12" covid block exchange. It can be found here www.onwilliamsstreet.com/spread-the-light-share-the-love. You may use this block or any other block you wish. We will be pairing Board members, past and present, with non-board members and providing each of you with contact numbers and mailing addresses. Please plan to have your exchange blocks ready by Thanksgiving so they can be shared at our social. If you want to take part in this special exchange, please contact Monica Sayre 818-917-0389 or masayre77@gmail.com.
GAMES--of course there will be games!!
