Upcoming Programs

Month Description

July 18, 2019 Annual Guild Member Vendor/Garage Sale

Annual Guild Member Vendor/Garage Sale. Members can reserve a table to sell quilting related or other items (i.e., honey, soaps, etc.)
August 15, 2019 Lynn Carson-Harris presents Do it for the Process

Lynn Carson-Harris will be giving a lecture "Do it for the Process." Lynn will share some of her quilts and talk about her journey from the first quilt she made as a teenager in 1976 to her current work. She has found that the steps of making a quilt are often more meaningful to her than the completed quilt. Focusing on the creative process rather than the finished product allows her time in the studio to be filled with play and discovery.

The Friday workshop features your choice between two patterns - Stella or Crooked Patch. Note that the Stella pattern is Layer Cake (10 inch precut squares) friendly and the Crooked Patch pattern is Jelly Roll (2 1/2 inch strips) friendly, so this is perfect to use some of those precuts you have! If you don't have precuts that is no problem!

The Saturday workshop features your choice between two patterns - Aurora and Lupine. Both of these quilts were inspired by Gudrun's home Country - Iceland.

Scanned pictures of the four patterns are included below - Supply lists for these classes, will be provided as soon as they become available.
