Open Sew May Project #1: Let’s Build on the Basics
Join us on Saturday May 30, 2026 from 9am-2pm for Open Sew at Stone Arch Village, 831 Court Street, Keene as we continue building our quilting skills—one stitch (and a few laughs) at a time. Feel free to bring a friend (quilting buddies are always a good idea!).
We’ve got two great projects lined up: Roman Stripe (Red, White & Blue Edition!)
Perfect for using up those scraps while giving a nod to our country’s 250th anniversary.
Bring your own fabric scraps this month and if you want to pre-cut:
- Block Centers: 2 1/2" x 4 1/2"
- Block Sides: (2) 1 1/2" x 4 1/2" strips
Please text Peggy at 478-361-9496 if you plan to come
Open Sew May 30th Project #2: 9-Patch within a 4-Patch Heart Block
Looks impressive, but we’ll walk through it step-by-step—no stress required!
Bring :
- Fabric 1: (1) 3 1/2" x 5" rectangle + (5) 2" squares
- Fabric 2: (1) 3 1/2" x 5" rectangle + (4) 2" squares
- Fabric 3: Light background (1) 3 1/2" square + (4) 2" squares
Along the way, we’ll review:
- Nesting seams (yes, they really can behave!)
- Accurate seam allowances
- Fun border options to finish your project with flair
This is a great chance to use your scraps, sharpen your skills, and enjoy some creative time together.
