Quilter’s Message

Some of you may have known Ronnie Durrence, a quilter, in Savannah who died in 1998.  I was told about him a while ago and was surprised when a neighbor called and asked if I would like to see some of the quilts that he had made for her family.  Two were wedding gifts for her children and two were ones that they purchased from him.  His mom was a quilter and he developed a love of quilting.  These quilts are hand quilted and I took close ups of the backs so that you can (hopefully) see it.

Laura Brown’s daughter, Kacie Campbell, has asked me to share the following information with our guild members.

Laura was a member of our guild for many years and a very talented quilter. Her daughter is selling the items in Laura’s sewing studio—-lots of fabric, tools, books, notions, etc….  Kacie does not have set prices but is trusting that buyers will make reasonable offers (while still paying less than they would normally pay) in an attempt to pay down debts and find good homes for the items.

You can contact Kacie at 678-491-1769 to set up a time to take a look at the sewing/quilting items.

This great opportunity showed up in my email and I thought I would share. Cheryl Lynch is the designer behind the Mini Mosaic patterns many of us have made. Check it out. 🙂   Theresa

EXCLUSIVE WORKSHOP “Beach Love” is a mini mosaic 8″x10″ canvas art.  There is no sewing, so it’s fun for both sewists and non-sewists alike. It’s a virtual 3 hour workshop using Zoom.  The  workshop fee ($40) includes the class and the complete kit and shipping in the US.  You can choose to use one component or all three.  You can decorate the canvas or leave it plain.  In class I will go over how to create the mosaics, words, decorating the canvas and attaching it to the canvas. The kit includes the canvas, pattern, cut up fabric and SAS. There is an Admin from Junto Space who will help you if there are any technology issues.  We’ll be using breakout rooms to make the class more intimate.You can get to meet new friends and be able to ask lots of questions! “Beach Love” will only be offerred in this virtual workshop for 2020. DATE: Friday, June 12th   6:30-9:30PM EDT

Hi, all you sheltering ladies!

It was so good to see many of you during the Zoom SQG Meeting on the 9th.  What a fun way to feel connected even though we can’t meet in person right now.  Mary’s program was terrific!  What a relief that the Powerpoint Presentation she made works seamlessly with Zoom.
