DK Quilt Guild: 8 Blocks [1]
['This Content Is Not Subject To Review Daily Kos Staff Prior To Publication.']
Date: 2025-03-30
DK Quilt Guild: A place for quilters to gather, share ideas, projects, and to make the world a better place, one quilt at a time. Join us and share your thoughts, projects, questions, and tips. Quilters here are at many different levels of skill. Beginners and non-quilters are welcome, too. We NEED diarists!
Your diary can be elaborate and full of photos, a simple story of your own quilting history or that of someone you love, a discussion of a current project or a technique you're learning, new adventures... You could post quilt retreat-day recipes (things like crockpot meals, so food appears without much attention from you)...
We could do show and tell or open thread, also, but either way, we need diarists to host. It is EASY if you're willing to take the chance. Diary Schedule 4/06 — OPEN 4/13 — OPEN 4/20 — OPEN 4/27 — OPEN 5/04 — OPEN

This sawtooth star block was the first time I used the Astronaut Boy fabric. I submitted it to the NASA astronaut Karen Nyberg’s Starblock Challenge Block for the 2014 International Quilt Festival in Houston.
