Jean Wells, one of my favorite professional quilters & the owner of The Stitchin Post quilt shop out West is offering several Zoom classes on different subjects.  The next one is June 11th.  Go to The Stitchin Post website to purchase the class for $15.00 and they will send you the sign-in code for the Zoom class later.

I can’t wait!

Quilts by Ronnie Durrence

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.

Fabric, books, notions, etc… for sale

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.
