Thank you to all who responded to the 2022 Feedback Survey. Your responses assist the guild leadership -- telling us what we do well, and letting us know where we have opportunities for improvement.
The entire survey results may be viewed here. If you were unable to attend the September meeting, you missed an informative program led by member Beverly Keyser on Kaleidoscope Quilts.
Beverly shared her quilts inspired by Bethany Reynolds' stack 'n whack method of cutting fabric. The fabric is then sewn to create a 'kaleidoscope' effect. Included in the presentation were numerous resources and tips on creating a successful and gorgeous stack 'n whack quilt. A copy of the presentation may be found here. Our July program on Transparency and Dimension included a fabulous listing of quilters and makers using transparency and dimension in interesting ways.
Click here for the resource list. Each person, situation, space, circumstance, etc is different….so the way you build and manage your stash is different too and will change over time.
There is no one “correct” answer. This presentation provides questions and jumping off points to help you think about what will work for YOU. scrap_building_and_management_handout__03-15-2022_.pdf The inaugural MQG Webinar/Video Study Group kicked off with an informative presentation on paper piecing. We watched the video Fresh Quilting Episode 210: Freeze Paper Piecing by Nicole Neblett. The discussion followed with members noting the ease with which freezer paper could be used for large scale piecing. A handout was also provided with instructions on how to use freezer paper for piecing.
If you were unable to attend the February meeting, you missed an informative discussion on Foundation Paper Piecing by member Pam Casey. We learned the basics of FPP and were provided with numerous pattern and tutorial resources. View the presentation in the download file below. 
Join us as we sew up a different FMQ design each month! You can use your practice swatches to sew up some small projects or join them together with a Quilt As You Go technique to create one quilt!
May and September were catch up months--no new files!
