- First Annual Introduce a Friend to Modern Quilting
- The guild set up stations around the room where guests could visit and ask questions about various aspects of modern quilting - everything from fabric selection to binding as well as techniques such as EPP, paper-piecing, applique, etc.
- There was a good turnout and it seemed to be enjoyed by the existing membership as well.
- SWAP
- Secret Stalker Swap ensued
- Seems like everyone was on target for their stalkee and everyone really enjoyed the mini-quilt they received.
- Next month's swap will be a "Challenge" (you get to keep what you work on) > The challenge is "use a novelty print in a project" and bring it to share of course!
- Round Robin
- Participants showed off their quilts
- Due to the number of people who wanted to pull their quilts out for awhile, it was decided to put the RR on hiatus until January.
Next month's snacks are Pam (snack) and Karen (drink).
