Favorite Things Meeting!

Hey friends!
This month is our FAVORITE THINGS meeting! That's right- bring your favorite book, notion, pattern, fabric, etc to show.  We'll have show and tell and learn about something new!

Don't forget to bring your QuiltCon challenge block. It needs to be 12.5" tall by however wide you want to make yours. I can't wait to see your interpretation of modern quilting!

We'll announce the slate for the new officers and voting will take place at our June meeting. Dues are due next month as well. $40 annually.

Those of you working on the Habitat quilts, please bring them to the meeting too.

We've got a few giveaways in store as well so see you all this Thursday night (May 24!)  6:00 Morrison Regional Library.

Guild Meeting This Thursday!

Hey everybody! 
Just a reminder that our guild meeting is this Thursday- 6:00 PM at Morrison Regional Library. 


Don't forget to bring your pincushion if you did not bring yours for your partner swap last month. 


Keep in mind we will be electing new officers and a new board in June. Be thinking how you can best serve our guild and what position you are most interested in. 


Our mini workshops this month will be on alternative binding options for mini and wall quilts led by Joyce, and we'll have a hand quilting how-to session led by Elizabeth.

**Please bring a small quilt sandwich, scissors, a thimble, a needle and hand quilting thread to the meeting to get some hands-on tips and practice.

Also on the agenda: What does Modern Quilting Mean to You? We'll discuss modern quilting and get the details on a new modern quilting challenge.

We'll also have some great giveaways thanks to Westminster Fibers.



Looking forward to seeing everyone on Thursday night!

Meeting Time Changed!

Our meeting this month (this Thursday, March 29) will be at 6:30 instead of 6:00 at Morrison Library! Be sure to note the change.

Big thanks to Amanda Murphy for teaching us how to do Y seams and trapunto! I am sure it will be great!

Don't forget to bring your pincushion if you participated in the swap and everyone that makes and wears a name tag to the meeting will be entered to win the fabric prize from Westminster Fibers! That's what I call motivation! :)


Have a great week!
