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.

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.

Also, bring things for show and tell even if you brought them to the guild meeting last Saturday. See you Wednesday afternoon.

All Modern Bee people who have started their Round Robin quilts should bring their circle sections to the May guild meeting to share. sorry for the confusion on the last posting.

The Modern Bee will be meeting again May 15 (1-4) at the Talahi Island Community Center (532 Quarterman Dr.).

We’ll be continuing our DIY Round Robin quilt project and this month concentrating on stripes. If you haven’t started this project yet just being a stack of fabric and your sewing machine and we’ll help you begin.

Just a note to remind you that the Modern Bee will be meeting this Wednesday April 17 from 1-4 at the Talahi Island Community Center (532 Quarterman Dr.). As usual all are welcome.

This month we’ll be starting the DIY Round Robin Quilts for those who want to tackle this project. (The plan is described in more detail in the entry in the Modern Bee section of this website.) We’ll be starting with circles and this will be the focus of Wednesday’s meeting. Bring some fabric, your machine, and ideas.  Also bring show and tell contributions. We’ll have circle templates and ideas from various books on hand.

If you want to work on another project, that’s ok, too. See you Wednesday.
