COMQG Banner

• Make a block for the COMQG Banner! The banner will be a small, rectangular quilt, with our logo in the center, and blocks that we make as a border. 
• Kayla distributed packets of fabric and instructions for making a block. The completed blocks need to be returned to Kayla on June 3rd or before. 
• If you weren't at the meeting, and want a fabric packet, please contact Kayla to receive yours. It will be fun if all our members can make a block.
• The fabrics chosen are all solids, or textured solids, in cool colors, and the banner is going to look great, and be truly a collaborative effort.
