Last Saturday was another great Modern Quilt Guild meeting. We did our usual short meeting and then got right to the fun... We had 5 wonderful volunteers do a round robin of learning..
 |
| Marianne taught us how to make continuous bias binding... |
 |
| Grace brought her machine and a couple of fabulous quilts and showed how she does free motion quilting... |
 |
| She had tons of samples for us to look over... |
 |
Jamie showed us all how to make her famous hexagons...I am pretty sure that "hexagon" is her middle name...She loves them and is making tons of them for a quilt. She has given herself 5 years to make it.
Jamie also contributes to Moda Bake Shop and has a quilt she designed featured in the current issue (April 2011) of Quilters World. The quilt was renamed for the magazine and is called Sugar & Spice. Jamie named it Ruffle Quilt and it is featured as a Moda Bake Shop pattern under that name. It also hung in the Moda booth at Houston last year. She was beyond excited... |
 |
| Marsha showed us a bit about hand piecing...and I've been thinking about it... |
 |
| Sally (not sure why I don't have a photo of HER)..showed us tube quilting...quite fascinating |
|
|
I actually put my camera away for show and tell so I have no photos...but we saw some great baby quilts and a table topper and more...
Then we signed up for a mug rug swap.... they are due next meeting and I have been thinking of ideas...It's a secret swap so I will be able to show you the mug rug because no one will know ..
