Civil War Half Square Triangle Exchange
Do you love scrappy half square triangle designs? Come join the fun learning an easy way to make 28 half square triangles at once. The fun continues when you return your triangles to the Shoppe. Once you've sewn your 28 half square triangles, you will keep one, then bundle the remaining 27 and drop them off at or mail them to the Shoppe. You have until April to sew your desired number of half square triangles. For every bundle of 27 half square triangles you bring in, you will receive an equal number of assorted half square triangles - just perfect to execute the gorgeous designs featured in 'Friendship Triangles,' by Edyta Sitar. All roll-ups will feature Civil War reproduction fabrics so your triangles will coordinate fabulously! We will help you figure out how many roll-ups you need for your desired project(s).
You don't have to live in the valley to join the exchange! You can participate by mail. Small shipping fees will apply.
We will have a Civil War Half Square Triangle Exchange LAUNCH PARTY on Saturday, February 18th.
