Curtiss Corners Quilt Club met Monday, October 20, 2025 at Curtiss Community Hall with 14 members attending.
For October demonstration Kay provided directions and step outs of a star ornament which can double as a mug rug.
CCQC is assembling an event quilt using the Tumbling Block pattern to be used anywhere CCQC is attending an event. Each member sewed a tumbling block in colors of red, black and white. Keep an eye out for the quilt and stop by for a chat.
In one community service project, club members are crafting quilts for a Never Forgotten Honor Flight. The club invites others to join the effort toward its goal of 100 quilts. Finished quilt size is 36x50” with suggested colors of red, white and blue. If you are interested in joining the challenge, please reach out to Curtiss Corners Quilt Club on Facebook.
Another service project is Crafts for Cancer. Club members are crafting and selling quilted items and donating all proceeds to help those undergoing cancer treatments. Look for the club at local craft fairs and farmers markets in Clark County.
Instead of secret Santa gifts at the 2025 CCQC Christmas party, each club member will make a pillowcase for the Ronald McDonald House in Marshfield. RMHC also accepts small quilts which members are looking through fabric stash and UFOs to find colors and prints children will love.
Reserve Saturday, August 1, 2026 for CCQC’s 36th annual Quilt Show - 250 Years of Stars, Stripes and Stitches.
Monthly Tip: Autumn in Wisconsin is a good time to find inspiration in nature and note ideas in a photo album or notebook. Explore quilting magazines, books, and online sites like Pinterest or Instagram, or visit museums and fabric stores for new ideas. Finally, consider personal experiences and family history for unique concepts that can become a new quilt.
