March 19 Modern Bee

This month’s Modern Bee will be meeting as usual on the third Wednesday (March 19) at the Talahi Community Center (532 Quarterman Dr.) from 1-4.

This month the workshop theme is STRIPES. We’ll explore a variety of ways to make stripes and incorporate them into modern quilts. Bring coordinated fabrics and your machine.

For show and tell bring any of the minimalist blocks you’ve made and anything else you’d like to share.

See you next week.

Upcoming Modern Bee

Just a note to remind everyone that the Modern Bee will be meeting this coming Wednesday, February 19 from 1-4 at the Talahi Community Center (532 Quarterman Road).

We’ll be continuing our work on minimalist modern quilts. If you missed last month’s meeting, no problem. We’ll bring you up to date. Bring your sewing machine and coordinated fabric.

At this month’s meeting we’ll be introducing a new quilting challenge and give you a bit of fabric to get started.

Don’t forget to bring things for the show and tell — minimalist quilts in progress, things finished from last year, or anything else you’d like to share. See you Wednesday.

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.

We’ll be continuing our work on the DIY Round Robin Quilts. This week we’ll concentrate on stripes. Do join us even if you haven’t started this project.  We’ll bring you up to speed. Just bring fabrics with the colors you’d like to work with and your sewing machine. We’ll also talk about the next stage in the Round Robin.
