Whole lot of stitchin' goin' on recap

Joan's Modern Houses

I continue to be stunned and amazed at the creativity and enthusiasm of this group of quilting gals!  

We started off by taking care of some business--there is an updated Member's roster, we welcomed guests and got an update on our guild badges.

Pam's logo design and Debra's embroidery skills!

Gayle introduced a monthly block challenge and drawing based on the Minneapolis M
QG--and we are jazzed about it.  The first challenge is a Mod Mosiac and I will post more details later in the week.

Janet presented the February program--Chapter 6 of the Quilting Modern book--Log Cabin Makeover.  

Janet--our program leader for February

This was also part of our Madrona Road Challenge and the number of blocks created by our gals was overwhelming!

And the winners are:

Denise

We can't wait to see the completed quilts!  And there was still enough blocks to create a full size charity quilt.  Sounds like a Sew In day project...


Here is some of the  show and tell-

Gerry's Jelly Roll Quilt

Joan's Modern Placemats

And more detail

Janet's Tunnel Vision Sewing Machine Cover

Melody's Quilt As You Go Quilt

And if you were wondering about the guild's Logo Challenge, Sandi, Janet, Pam and I spent the afternoon at Sew Bee It working on the layout for the guild's banner.  Pam has spent a lot of time with all of the blocks and is becoming quite attached to them.  We are going to have some amazing banners!

Next month's program will be a recap of the trip to QuiltCon!  See you then!
