Come to the Community Scrap Quilting Bee, Saturday, April 25 SewGreen is inviting community members of all ages to contribute a piece to a scrap crazy quilt that we'll stitch together on Saturday, April 25, in the main gallery at the Community School of Music & Arts, 330 East State Street, in downtown Ithaca. You can make a quilt piece from our materials or bring your piece already made. Crazy quilts are traditionally constructed from scraps of material in irregular geometric shapes (not necessarily square) and sometimes contain images or messages. Pieces may include embroidery and other embellishments. Artistic creativity, bright colors, and earth-celebration images are encouraged! If you make your own piece, please use nothing purchased new for this purpose, and no photocopy processes, toxic inks or paint.
The bee will be buzzing from 11 am to 4 pm. It's free and all ages are welcome. We'll display the quilt and a list of all the makers' names the next day, Sunday, April 26, at the SewGreen booth at the big Earth Day celebration at the Ithaca Farmers' Market pavilion, noon to 5 pm. Be a part of the community quilt!
