Just a gentle reminder, membership dues for 2025 are due by the end of January. For the members going to the retreat, this is imperative.
You may use Venmo, Zelle or send a check. Dues are $30.00 and the instructions for Venmo and Zelle are on the Savannah Quilt Guild site under the members heading. Checks should be made out to Savannah Quilt Guild and may be turned in at our meeting Saturday or mailed to: Janet Howard P O Box 31051 Savannah, GA 31410-8151.
See you Saturday!
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.
Landscape quilts are easy and fun to make. Each one is distinctively different. In this workshop, you will learn the basics of landscape quilting using your scrap fabrics.
For this workshop you will need to bring:
• Sewing machine
• Scrap fabrics
• Straight pins
• Scissors
• Rotary cutter
• Thread for sewing machine: minimum bring grey other colors are always nice to have.
This is an example. Yours will be unique.
