Hello There

Wow!  Has it really been almost 3 months since our last post?  Well, there's a ton of information to relay, so over the next week or two, in small short posts,  I'll do just that.  Welcome 2013.  Let's be creative.  Let's be modern.  Let's quilt. 

Our meeting times and days have changed.  First Baptist Church in Crestview is where everything happens now - meeting, sew-and-tell, technique and skill building demonstrations, socializing, and SEW-day are combined. Our next meeting is Saturday, February 9, 2013 beginning at 10:00am.  We have the space until 6:00pm.  Come for all of it, or, come for part of it.  Your choice.    You know you'll have fun.  Thank you to both Lynn's Sewing Center and Martelli's for hosting either our meetings or our SEW-day(s) previously. 

Our technique and skill building demonstration is paper piecing with that cute little LOVE tutorial from ECMQG founding member Kelly Bowser of kelbysews.  Our resident paper piecing guru, Kira, has agreed to give us the lesson.  You can find Kelly's tutorial here from her guest spot over at Sew, Mama, Sew! last year.  If you're planning on attending the meeting, PRINT your letters and bring them with you.  And of course, don't forget your scraps, background, batting, backing, etc. too.
