Pizza Box Exchange Club
- Choose what colors/designs you want in your quilt. Put your fabrics in your pizza
box. Decide what colors you do not want in your quilt.
- All blocks should be 12½”. Please make sure that each block is squared and measures
12½”.
- You make your first block – due in June.
- The first Saturday every month (beginning in June), everyone will meet at Sew E-Z
and exchange pizza boxes. Your pizza box will go to the next person in line.
How the Exchange will work:
- Based on how many people sign up, we will break the exchange into groups of 12 people
each. All names will be put in a bucket and drawn to determine the groups.
- Each group of 12 will be arranged in alphabetical order. This order will determine
who gets the “pizza box next”.
- On the inside lid of your pizza box, provide the following information:
- Your name
- The desired size of your blocks
- Any colors you do not want to be used in your blocks.
- Indicate whether or not you pre-washed your fabrics so that each blocks’ fabric treatment
is the same.
- You bring your pizza box with your first block made, any fabrics you want in your
blocks and the above information to June’s meeting.
- Your pizza box will be passed on to the person whose name is after yours in the pre-determined
order.
- At the end of 12 months, you will get your box back with 12 finished blocks in it.
- Anyone can add a fabric to your block; as long as it is not the color that you indicated
you do not want in your quilt.
- Each person constructing the blocks should consider the person for who the block
is being made. Try tailoring the block to that person’s interests, personality, likes/dislikes
etc. if possible.
- You should not make the same block for each person in your group. Each month, you
should be constructing a different, unique block.
- Please use good quality fabrics. Put thought and skill into each block as though
it were your own.
At May 2012’s meeting, you should have 12 blocks back in your pizza box. Put your
blocks in a quilt in whichever setting you desire. You will then have a truly one-of-a-kind
quilt made especially for you by 11 of your sewing friends.
