There are still openings available for the October 15th Lynn Carson Harris workshop, String Theory - Foundation Free Strings. The cost of the workshop is $30 and it will be held from 1-4 PM at St. Leonard Church, Heath.
Lynn will teach her method for string piecing with no foundation. With this fool proof technique, there is no extra layer of fabric in the quilt and no paper bits to pick out after the sewing is finished. This technique to build blocks can be used in many designs. You will learn the skills needed to add string piecing to your own quilt designs. Bring your scrap bin and prepare to have some fun!
If you would like to attend, please e-mail Steffanie Czaja at Steffanieczaja@gmail.com to hold your place. She will send you the supply list for the class.
We appreciate our two presenters, this evening, Elie Berry and her quilts, and Wendy Hollinger from Phoenix Graphics, discussing our website. A big thanks to both of them!
Here are some pictures of Elie’s quilts. In case you missed getting a copy of her handout, extras will be available at the next meeting. Also, a copy of the handout is included in the comments, in case you want to print it yourself.
Our next Guild meeting is this Tuesday, 9/17, 6:30 p.m. We will have two special guests. The first is Elie Berry, who will be showing us her award winning quilts. The second will be Wendy Hollinger, from Phoenix Graphics who will speak to us about using our new website.
A reminder that those who have entries in the Quilt Show need to bring your quilt(s). I have included a picture of my friend Kiki, who has been helping me get the lint and cat hairs off of the quilts I am bringing.
Also, if you have any items that you are donating to the Quilt Show Boutique, please be sure to bring them to the meeting and give to Karen Bergeron.
