QUILT WALKABOUT
It may have been a grey, dreary cold day in Duluth but members of the Lake Superior Modern Quilt Guild grabbed their brightest quilts, bundled up, and gathered for a walkabout around Duluth's iconic Aerial Lift Bridge! Check out the Duluth News Tribune article on the colorful walkabout: Duluth quilters strut stuff in Canal Park |
Happy March! It’s the month of shamrocks, leprechauns, St. Urho, daylight savings time and the Spring equinox. So while at times March weather can be challenging, it just may be the perfect quilty month……if it’s Springy warm we win! If it snows and blows, we sew and win! How can you not love March!?!
Sooooo….let’s March right into our agenda for our next meeting at Karen McTavish’s quilting studio! LSMQG web page: Deb will be revealing our new and improved LSMQG web page…you don’t want to miss this! Simple Simon Quilt a Long: This month’s emphasis is bold prints. We’ll listen to a portion of a webinar that introduces the Modern Quilt continuum and discusses fabric choices. Heidi and Robin will share their favorite fabric designers. If you have a Modern Traditional block, pillow, pattern, quilt which you were inspired to create from last month’s presentation/focus, bring it to share and inspire! Bold Print 5” fabric square lotto: We want to have some fun with this month’s Modern focus. Bring one, five inch square of bold, modern fabric. Label the back of your square with something that has your name on it (a piece of tape, a lightly stitched label, etc….) After the presentation on bold prints, the five inch squares will be put in a basket and one drawn out. If the drawn square has your name on it, you will win all the five inch squares in the basket! Please….Please…..Please……bold, modern prints only! Barn Quilt Painting Day: There is still time to sign up. Cost is $25.00 which includes materials. For those of you who have signed up and not yet paid, please bring cash or check to the March meeting. Guild Updates: We have quite a few updates to share
