The Bloomington-Normal Modern Quilt Guilt met on Tuesday, May 22, 2018 at Christ Lutheran Church. Forty-four (44) members were in attendance, three (3) guests and we welcomed two (2) new members tonight.  Welcome to Rachel G. and Kathleen S.!

President Kathy C. thanked Leanne F and Anita T who provided us with delicious snacks.  We were able to see more pictures of themodern quilts from this year’s Quilt Con provided to us by Ann G.

It was such a joy to see all the beautiful Kona Color of the Year modern mini quilts come through the door! We have 30 quilts ( and one marvelous new logo mini made by Donna L and Nancy G) to display at Kelly’s Bakery for the month of June. Well done BNMQG!

Hello Modern Quilters,

It’s time! Bring your Kona Tiger Lily mini quilt to the meeting in May. If you can’t be there please send it with a friend or make arrangements to turn it in before the meeting.  For your work to be hung in the exhibit it must be turned in by next Tuesday at the meeting.

We’ll be learning about printing on fabric using stamps, potatoes and all kinds of fun objects using several different mediums.  There will be paper to practice on and fabric for your final design.  Feel free to bring your own fabric too!

Registration for the July workshop with Lynn Carson Harris will begin this month.

Nancy Powell will be presenting the second set of directions for the BNMQG Mystery Quilt that she has designed.  There’s plenty of time to join in!
