AUGUST
MEETING |
We welcomed Susan Cook to our meeting this month Susan presented a program on how to perk up our free motioning quilting skills among many other tips and suggestions. She distributed a matrix so we could practice various patterns with pencil. This is a common method to guide and inspire free motion quilting. |
|
|
Susan passed around several samples of her work so we could see close up the results that can be achieved with free motion quilting. | |

President Suzanne discussed plans for our Quilts In The Park Quilt Show coming up on September 5th through 8th. Members signed up for work assignments to help out during the show. |
We got a nice start on items for the quilt show raffle but of course more is needed. Items can be brought to the Pendleton Historical Museum on September 3rd during in take day or any other day during the show. | |
BLOCKS OF THE MONTH Many of the
patriotic blocks from last month were returned this month in probably a
two-quilt quantity when finished. |
