I wanted to share the information about the memorial services for Charlotte Gerken’s husband Ronald.  As a long time member of the Guild I know she has many friends who miss her attendance and would like the opportunity to support her.

This is my first time posting on the site so hoping all goes well.

Looking forward to working with everyone who signed up for the Quilting with Neckties workshop on Saturday.  It’s not too late to grab a few at the local thrift store, raid the closet, or ask your neighbors for unwanted ties. I will also have some extra scraps and old shirts which you are free to mix in with what you have. Look for a mix of light and dark and varied patterns like stripes, foulards, dots, even large scale patterns. If you are worried about working with any precious fabrics feel free to bring ones you don’t care about to practice on and learn the techniques.  You might be surprised and like it better once you cut it up into smaller pieces.

It will be a fun and interactive workshop to learn how to deal with bias, and non traditional fabrics for your quilting.  The techniques will work for almost any block and I will bring some examples to share.

I am attaching the supply list for reference if you need it.

Hope to see you there and help inspire your creative work.
