FLAMINGO RUN IS HERE!!!!!!! 

 

We are sso excited to present to you our first Flamingo Block aptly named "Dive into the Treasure Coast".  The block contains a part of the Guilds in our area and quilting group that we are aware of.  We honor all the wonderful members of these groups that keep us inspired.  Thank you Martin County Quilters for the Treasure Chest, Thimblebuddies for our thimbles and the bits of fabric to Gone to Pieces.  To help with assembly and all for your blocks we have provided these pictures.  Thank you for coming and we look forward to 2008.

Also, as a new suggestion to the group, it was our task to design the quilt to enhance all the blocks you pick up on the Run.  Margy set herself to the task and we have a large flamingo under palm tree with sunshine and sail  boats.  Here is our setting.  The pattern is provided free for all the runners who visit all seven shops.  It is also available in the completion kit.  Here is our sample.
