BEES
Buzz, buzz, ….. busy bees! What a great way to get to know others in the quilt chapter and learn new “tricks.” If you love quilting, Centreville QU has a wide variety of bees available for you. Daytime or evening, whatever your preference, we’ll find a match for you… or start a new one!

BLOCK OF THE MONTH
Block patterns will be included in each month’s newsletter and members are encouraged to make them using your own fabric colorways. The blocks will all be “puzzle” blocks. There are a couple that may be somewhat challenging but many will be familiar.
Once we start meeting in person we will begin making blocks to turn in for someone to win.
COMMUNITY SERVICE
Centreville QU members are pleased to use their skills to give back to the community. This year completed projects will be dropped off to Linda Keithley and Mary Feurtado. For tracking purposes, all completed projects must be labeled and tagged with your name.
