We’ve been invited to participate in a pincushion swap with the Kansas City Modern Quilt Guild! It’s a large guild – over 100 members! – so a  number of different Modern Guilds are participating, including Austin (their blog post about the swap), Wichita, Bay Area, Indianapolis and Northern Virginia. Exciting!

It’s a general swap, with no assigned partners.

Guidelines for the pincushion swap are:

– Modern aesthetic;

– Nothing breakable;

– Pin a tag to the pincushion with your name, email, blog, guild, filling (in case of allergies) and QuiltCon yes/no (see * below);

– Filling of your choice, but please make sure to list it on the tag;

– Bring to November 19th VMQG meeting;

– Distribution of pincushions envisioned for late December;

– *Swappers attending QuiltCon will be grouped so there is an opportunity to meet your pincushion’s creator in person.

To inspire you, Amy has put together a fantastic Pinterest board with all kinds of great eye candy and tutorials.

Have fun creating!
