This is a reminder that our March 9 meeting is being held at The First Christian Church of Savannah. The address is 711 E. Victory Drive, Savannah 31405. From Victory Drive (traveling East) turn Right onto Paulson, then take the first alley on the right to the parking lot behind the Fellowship Building. Parking will be tight, so please consider car-pooling with friends. I have asked Mary Bell Fuller to help direct cars in the lot so we can get as many in as possible. See you all Saturday! Kim

Katie Lewis will be here for our Friday Scrappy Applique Class at the First Christian Church at 711 E.

We will meet in the Fellowship Hall which is in front of you behind the playground.  Plan to be there by 9:30am so that you have time to set up your workstation before class starts at 10:00 am.  Class will run until 3:00pm.  Please bring your supplies as detailed in the student supply list. (if you need another copy, please let me know). Check that your sewing machine is in working order and you have an iron and ironing mat. We will have both available .

February Modern Bee Reminder

Just a note to remind you that the modern Bee will be meeting this Wednesday February 21 1-4 at the Talahi Island Community Center (532 Quarterman Dr.). Everyone invited.

We will be continuing on our track of designing improv quilts.  This workshop will be based on the work of Cindy Grisdella and her “Blue Puzzle” quilt. Bring the following supplies:

  1. A sewing machine and standard sewing supplies (including a ruler 6 1/2″ or larger and a rotary cutter); and
  2. Fabric of your choice which may be based on multi-colored scraps or a palette of coordinated colors.

Also bring along your work from past meetings, either finished or in progress for others to see. If you’ve come across interesting things on modern quilting, bring that along as well.

See you Wednesday. Remember there’s a $3 fee for use of the building.
