Sixty nine (69) members and one guest attended a virtual meeting of the Bloomington-Normal Modern Quilt Guild on November 28, 2023.

President Vivian H. opened the meeting with a brief review of using Zoom including muting yourself and putting questions in the chat.   

Nancy P. then introduced the speaker, Libs Elliott.   Libs is a fabric designer and quilt instructor.  She also heads an online group called The Sew Squad.  She designs her modern quilts using a coding program called processing.  By using the code, she is able to edit the code to produce simple, geometric quilt shapes.   She showed several quilts she designed using this process. Toward the end of the program, she showed a sample of the code she uses.   Libs explained she does not know what the end result will be until it is displayed on the screen.
