May Pics and info about upcoming June 10th meeting

 Show 'n Share is always so fun when we get to hear about motivation and inspiration for each other's creations.











We had a super guest speaker:  Sandy Simmelink from Burlington.  The stories around her quilts were so inspiring, both emotionally, artistically and creatively.



The church hall was booked for sewing on May 22nd, and Ricardo came to service our sewing machines.  He made it through 14 machines with a basic clean, oil, and minor repairs - busy busy day!



As usual, we enjoyed a shared pot luck lunch to keep us energized.

Show 'n Share photos from April meeting.






















Here are a few of the presentation by Chris Liszak.




Next meeting May 13, 2026 at 7:00 p.m.
Trunk show by Sandy Simmelink from Burlington.  An exquisite stitcher - this will be an interesting presentation.
Guild member, Bonnie Cook, will be doing a presentation on fabric landscapes. She will review basic composition, the rule of thirds and the roles of texture, light and shadow in creating the 3D illusion of depth. We will discuss these principles using some of her landscapes and photographs, watch a 10-minute video, and participate in a demonstration on how to build a simple landscape. Included will be three methods of sewing a landscape.
To fully participate in this presentation, members are asked to bring a magazine, book or some favorite photographs of landscapes and seascapes, to use to illustrate the composition techniques discussed during the hour workshop.
