What's Happening

 The 33nd Annual WWIB/Sew Complete "Warmth from Wisconsin" Quilt Contest is now underway.
There are 2 categories to enter: a smaller quilt, at least 46" x 36" and no larger than 60" x 56" or a bed size quilt 60" x 72" or larger. To participate, pick up a "starter" block from Sew Complete. The "starter" block must appear somewhere in the quilt top--it may be altered, but the heart and the words "Warmth from Wisconsin" must remain in tact. The quilts will be distributed evenly between the homeless population through Youth with a Mission and Apple Pregnancy Center in Eau Claire, WI.  The grand prize winner will receive a $100 cash award from WWIB.  The judges will award up to 3 gift certificates from Sew Complete in each category. For more information, or a complete set of rules and a starter block, stop in or contact Sew Complete. You may also click here for the contest rules.

We are very grateful to all who have participated in this endeavor in the past.  Hundreds of quilts have been given to people who really need them over the years. 


                                                                                                                  
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                        

                                                                                                                                                                            
Sewing Club

Welcome back to Club! We have resumed Sewing Club meetings. At the 2022 Club meetings we will feature a "bag" or two--there will be lots of different kinds of bags. Jeri Lijewski will be our guest presenter at our November meetings, and feature a variety of projects including wool felt "Barn Quilts", applique patches and much more. Meeting times are Tuesday, November 1st,1-3 p.m. and 7-9 p.m.; and Saturday, November 5th at 10 a.m.  Club members should email or call letting us know which session they plan to attend. You are welcome to bring your show and tell items, as we love seeing what you are doing.












We have created this reversible table runner on our serger.  We hope you find time to try it and send pictures if you do!

If you prefer a sewing machine runner, the following is the reversible runner we made at Izzy's birthday party 2 years ago.

When we can start up our regular classes again, the reversible Izzy runner will be offered in "Beyond the Basics", and the serger runner can be made in our "Serger Fun Club".
