Modern Bee Notes

The Modern Bee will be meeting this month on Wednesday afternoon Feb. 19 from 1-4. We’ll be continuing with our work on minimalist quilts and ther will be a challenge. There will be more details on this later, but in the meantime, I’d like to remind everyone who has a round robin quilt to bring it to the guild meeting this Saturday. We’ll show them together.

Reminder: January Modern Bee

Just a reminder that the Modern Bee will be meeting this Wednesday, January 15 from 1-4 at the Talahi Community Center (532 Quarterman Road). There’s a $3 room rental fee.

The workshop will be on Minimalist Modern Quilting. We’ll be making little quilt “sketches” so bring your sewing machine and cutting supplies and some coordinated fabric. Your choice, but solids or low volume prints are good with either high contrast or subtle minimal colors.

We’ll be having a show and tell, so if you have a round robin quilt (in any shape) bring it along and any other things you’d like to share.

Looking forward to seeing you Wednesday.

January Modern Bee Meeting

The Modern Bee will be meeting Wednesday, January 15 from 1-4 at the Talahi Community Center (532 Quarterman Road). Remember there’s a $3 room rental fee.

We will be having a workshop on Minimalist Modern Quilting. Bring your sewing machine and coordinated fabric for little quilt “sketches”. The fabric can be either bold, high contrast or subtle minimal colors. However, it’s best if it’s either: 1) solids; or 2) low volume prints; or 3) a combo of the two.

Also, bring your round robin quilts (in whatever shape) and any other things for show and tell.

See you on the 15th.
