Bind Your Own Business

 The March meeting will be held on Tuesday, March 21st at 6:00pm.  Doors will open at 5:30.  Several members will present on varying methods of binding or finishing a quilt.  Do you have a unique method, a tip or a trick that could be helpful to others?  There will be a sharing time at the end of the presentations.  Don't forget to bring your Show 'n Tell.  If you have a unique or interesting binding you would like to share, we would love to see it as well.

Birthstone Challenge 2023 Has Been Issued

 The auction for our All Modern Quilts Show 2024 will be comprised of the quilts made for the 2023 Birthstone Challenge.  Each quilt should be an original design, no kits or commercial patterns, although you may use a design element or inspiration from someone else.  Your challenge quilt should be between 12"-20" per side.  The following chart shows the approximate color for each month's birthstone.  A minimal amount of neutral color may be incorporated in your design.  Prints may be used that include other colors, but all fabric should read as your birth month's color.  Quilts must be finished, including the quilting and binding, by the October 17th meeting.
