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! :)

I Need Your Help!

We need two more of you wonderful members to teach a mini session at our meeting next week!

We are going to have three small group sessions on specialty quilt blocks or techniques. You will need to bring a block to demonstrate your technique and your sewing machine along with any supplies, etc. needed to demonstrate how to make it.

Who can help us out? You will be demonstrating your block or technique 3 times in small groups so it does not need to be especially complicated or long!

Who would like to help out? Send me an email please! ellisonlane@gmail.com or cltmqg@gmail.com.

Also, please make sure you make and bring a nametag for the meeting next week. Everyone with a nametag will be entered to win some great fabric from Free Spirit / Westminster Fibers!

See you on the 29th at 6:00 at Morrison Library!
