Kinusaiga
This program is to be an quick introduction into Kinusaiga – not meant for you to create a masterpiece. The letter of the alphabet that you will create will hopefully teach you a new technique to use your scraps and see if this craft is one you enjoy. You might find that you will want to make beautiful art using your own drawings, quilt blocks, drawings from coloring books, purchased patterns online, AI, etc.

- Craft knife/Exacto knife with a ½” – 1” blade (check the newsletter for a link to an inexpensive option if you need to purchase one)
- 6-Inch Metal Ruler (optional but will be handy for straight lines)

- Small pair of fabric scissors
- Scotch tape
- Fabric Scraps to use (and share)

Confessions of a “Thread-Centric” Quilter
Julie Reuben
Tuesday, November 24, 2026 – 6:00 pm CST
In this virtual trunk show, Julie Reuben, describes the development of her unique style of quilting, in which intensive hand stitching is the dominant design feature. At 50, Julie discovered the modern quilting movement and became quickly obsessed, learning from the amazing resources the internet offers. She had her first quilt accepted into QuiltCon in 2019 and has exhibited there and at other shows regularly since then. She is fascinated with how something as small as a stitch of thread, when repeated over and over again, can create lines and shapes that interact with the fabric below. In this talk, you will learn how Julie turns the humble stitch into unexpected and evocative art quilts.
