Mark those brand-new 2020 calendars now for the SaddleBrooke Friday Quilters 2020 Quilt Show to be held on Sunday, March 1 from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Admission is free for this fabulous show at the MountainView Ballroom, 38759 S. MountainView Boulevard. The room will be filled with over 100 quilts and quilted items, including creations from some of our international award-winning members. As always, there will be a boutique featuring hundreds of handmade items by the club members for sale. All proceeds benefit local charities. Also available before and during the show are tickets for a lovely raffle quilt. It is a paper-pieced throw or wall hanging measuring 81” x 66” in southwestern colors. Ticket prices are $1 each, six for $5, 15 for $10, or 35 for $20 and are available from any SaddleBrooke Friday Quilters Club member. The winning ticket will be drawn at the end of the show and you do not need to be present to win. In addition to the show, boutique, and quilt raffle, there will be on-going demonstrations of techniques, a booth from the Quilt for a Cause organization, Quilts of Valor, and silent auction items.
We hope you all will be able to attend this highly anticipated one-day event and see how creative these members have been over the past two years. The club meets at 9 a.m. every Friday in Craft Room 4 at SaddleBrooke One. We welcome quilters of all interests and skill levels. Every meeting includes an inspiring show and tell.
