I'm posting relatively quickly after the meeting! Something must be wrong with me. <br />
<br />
Anyway, here is our lovely show and tell for the month!<br />
<br />
First up is Alma, who showed us her wonderful tree quilt. This was a Pinterest inspiration! And the names of her grandkids are embroidered on some of the circles. So awesome!<br />

Many were items that people had made for our big sale at Midlothian Day on Saturday. There's still time to submit items! Remember, we're raising funds so we can buy our own projection equipment. It's for a good cause! I apologize for not getting a picture of each type of item that people had (some had more than one thing). You all move so fast!<br />

We got a sneak peek of the raffle quilt for the 2014 Richmond Quilt Guild show made by the Friendship Circle group of the Richmond Quilt Guild. The kit was provided by Laura Blanchard of <a href="http://plumtreequilts.com/" target="_blank">Plum Tree Quilts</a> and it was pieced by the members of the guild. Quilting was done by Virginia Longarm. You'll get to purchase tickets for this beauty at the show which is September 20 and 21, 2014.<br />

Then the main event, which I have been referring to as Snip and Rip! It was fantastic and everyone who came participated! What happened was, everyone brought one yard of Kona cotton. Then there were a series of instructions to snip and rip the fabric and we all ended up with a different array of colors. Participants are to make something with them and bring it back in June or July. No pressure, just fun! Here are our colors!</div>

course is designed for both the novice who wants to learn how to make a
quilt and the experienced quilter who wants to break away from using
patterns to design their own innovative pieces. Covering the basics of
quilt construction, this class focuses on personal expression and
contemporary design with participants creating a small one-of-a-kind
quilted wall hanging. Most work is done on the sewing machine (students
may bring their own portable sewing machine, but it is not required). No
quilting experience necessary.</span></div>

I've been very lax about updating the blog, and I apologize about that. Of all the bazillion things there are to do, it seems like it's the one to fall to the wayside. I'm hoping to get all board members updating on a regular basis. But the silence over here does not mean that we aren't out here and doing lots of fantastic things!<br />
<br />
We have a Facebook ad running, which is generating interest! I'm hoping to see lots of new faces at the upcoming meeting. If you have friends who might be interested in our group, please bring them to our meetings!<br />
<br />
I'd like to hear from you about where you would like to see our group go in the next few months. I, for one, would love to see more about the modern quilt movement -- the aesthetic shown in the work of many of the founders of the parent group, <a href="http://themodernquiltguild.com/" target="_blank">The Modern Quilt Guild</a>. To that extent, we've added member Candy Parker to the board to help bring us closer to that group. She will be reporting on the goings-on of the national group at our meetings!<br />
<br />

<a href="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7050/6888994095_8d9b96279d_o.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7050/6888994095_8d9b96279d_o.png" /></a></div>
Speaking of the national group, are you aware of <a href="http://www.quiltcon.com/" target="_blank">QuiltCon</a>? It's the first annual conference put on by the MQG and even if you can't go, you can be a part of it! We're going to be sending our blocks in to represent our fantastic group of sewists. You can find all of the information on the QuiltCon page. We'll be having sewing days at <a href="http://www.quiltingadventures.com/" target="_blank">Quilting Adventures</a> on June 2nd and 27th. See their calendar for details! They even have put together bundles of the official QuiltCon colors to make our blocks with!<br />
<br />
And don't forget that <a href="http://www.theniftyneedle.com/" target="_blank">Karen Sievert</a> is coming in June! She'll be doing a trunk show at our regular meeting on June 15th and then will have a workshop the next day, June 16th. We are able to provide this class to members at an unheard-of class fee of $35 (and a kit fee of $6 payable to Karen on the day of the class). You don't want to miss this opportunity! Check out <a href="http://quiltingadventures.com/qablog/?p=6976" target="_blank">this link</a> on Quilting Adventures' blog to see a beautiful version of the workshop quilt!<br />
<br />
Finally, also in June, we will be revealing our final quilts in our current swap. So much fun! I can't wait to see mine!<br />
<br />
Happy Quilting!<br />

THE word, YOUR word</span></b><span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-latin;"><br />
<br />
Come up with a word -- a single, descriptive word -- that will help you define
your dreams, goals, and aspirations for the year 2012. <br />
<br />
This word will form the foundation of your center block, both figuratively and
literally. Your block should measure 11" x 14" and should contain
your written word but also images and graphics that further illustrate your
word, e.g., growth could be represented by a seedling, a child's measurement
chart, a city map, etc.<br />
<br />
When the block is passed, the group member will add two 6" x 14"
strips to either side of the center block, once again building on the word
itself and the images it evokes. The main block is due at the February meeting.
We will pass projects four times with the blocks being returned and revealed in
June.<br />
<br />
The completed piece will make for a lovely table runner, wall decor, the
beginning of an even larger effort, or wherever you like -- your choice!
Finishing it in June will allow for the projects to be developed at your
leisure over hte summer and returned to the group for a future show and tell --
what fun! <br />
<br />
There will be a check out log for the blocks each month so that we will always
be able to track the location of a block at any given time. Please continue to
be considerate of other participants by either delivering your block each month
or sending it in with another member or guest.<br />
<br />
Thank you all so much for your wondrous support in this effort and keep coming
up with those beautiful creations that make all our members simply beam with
delight!<br clear="all" style="mso-special-character: line-break;" />

<br />
Christine and I took the train from Richmond to Penn Station in NYC. We love taking the train and would highly recommend it! We have stayed at the Affinia Manhattan Hotel during our last two trips to New York. It is right outside Penn Station, so you get off the train, walk across the street and check-in. It couldn't be more convenient!<br />

After the inspiration overload that afternoon, we went to Macy's and shopped before heading to dinner. We ate at Tir Na Nog, an Irish Pub, near our hotel (<a href="http://www.tirnanognyc.com/">http://www.tirnanognyc.com/</a>). A woman on the train recommended this local favorite and she was right - it was delicious and a great atmosphere. It would have been perfect if the older couple sitting directly behind Christine hadn't been making out the entire time... </div>

Here is the beginning of Debbie's pillow. She is using a creamy linen background and gorgeous dyed fabrics. She is inspiring all of us to make this pillow, too.</div>

I just wanted to post a photo so you could get an idea of our new space (if you weren't at the November meeting)! It's huge! This shows the space we were taking up, but we actually had confined ourselves to a small portion of the room. We had about 40 people at the November meeting; we could easily hold four times that many without feeling cramped. I'm so excited!<br />
<br />
Speaking of excited, are you psyched about the upcoming December festivities? We'll be having our silent auction, our gift exchange, our round robin reveal and of course, food! More info to come in an email.<br />
<br />
Any questions or comments? Send them to the email address RichmondMQG (at) gmail.com.<br />

See you in December!Richmond Modern Quilt Guildhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07929249464949855084noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2155191928234154059.post-6723755922849693982011-11-14T17:56:00.001-06:002011-11-14T18:00:46.480-06:00November meeting!Hi ladies! The November meeting is coming up on Friday and I'm so excited. It's about one of my favorite topics: machine quilting! Did you know that I used to teach a machine quilting class at Quilting Adventures? In all the years I taught it (it was a confidence-building class), I never met a sewing machine that couldn't do machine quilting. If you can drive a car, you can do your own quilting! And believe me, it's a wonderful feeling to look at something you've created and know you've done the ENTIRE thing.<br />
<br />
In December, we'll be having our big end of the year festivities. This includes our round robin reveal, a silent auction and a gift exchange. Here's the scoop:<br />
<br />
Round robin reveal: We finally get to see our masterpieces!<br />
<br />
Silent Auction: Bring in something to be auctioned off (and be prepared to buy something if you can) to help earn money for the group! I've heard something about wanting to buy a bus, but I would settle for a projector, myself!<br />
<br />
Gift exchange: Bring something you made (or something sewing-related if you just can't get it together to make something). Be sure it's wrapped! We'll exchange them during the meeting. Can't think of something? Here are some ideas: Pincusion, jewelry, coasters, ornament, cookies, ... if you have other ideas, leave them in the comments!Richmond Modern Quilt Guildhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07929249464949855084noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2155191928234154059.post-32318501563016265972011-10-21T07:44:00.005-05:002011-10-21T07:44:59.628-05:00Meeting tonight!Okay, so someone (that would be me) dropped the ball on getting information out this month. I'm so sorry! My floor has been torn up which has pretty much put my entire household into chaos. That, and the month just got away from me.<br />
<br />
<br />
So, onward! Tonight's meeting is sure to be a good one, with a demo on beading. Don't forget your round robin blocks! I really enjoyed putting this one together! I can't wait for December, can you?<br />
<br />
<br />
Our meeting will be held tonight at 6:00 pm at Mt. Pisgah Methodist Church in Midlothian. The address is:<br />
<br />
1100 Mt. Pisgah Drive, Midlothian, Virginia 23113<br />
<br />
Bring a friend!

For those of you curious about the book Cheryl showed, it was <a href="http://search.barnesandnoble.com/Color-by-Accident/Ann-Johnston/e/9780965677608?itm=2&usri=color%2Bby%2Baccident">Color By Accident</a> by Ann Johnston. I'll get Christine to post some of her photos soon!<br />
<br />
I plan to post more in the coming weeks about things like Tour de Quilt (including a possible van rental), our silent auction and gift exchange, and other exciting topics.<br />
<br />
I hope everyone's round robins are going well. I know I can't wait until December to see the big reveal!<br />

We'll be at Mt. Pisgah Church in Midlothian. It's just about 1/2 mile east of Quilter's Corner.<br /><br /><a href="http://tinyurl.com/42ajmsm">Here's a link to a map showing where Mt. Pisgah is</a>!<br /><br />Quilter's Corner has been great in letting us use their space so far, but we're starting to get a little crowded in their classroom. Moving to Mt. Pisgah allows us to not sit on each other's laps! Also, we will be able to use the other spaces for classes and events.<br /><br />Our next meeting is Friday, September 16, at 6:30 pm. We start gathering at 6:00.<br /><br />Hope your round robin is going well! Remember, if you have problems, contact an officer!Richmond Modern Quilt Guildhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07929249464949855084noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2155191928234154059.post-49685190972565864732011-07-20T10:54:00.003-05:002011-07-20T11:06:39.689-05:00Round robin!July's meeting was great! It was wonderful to see all of the different postcards everyone made and to see the beautiful Swirly Girls Design studio!<br /><br />I hope everyone is excited about our next challenge: a round robin quilt. If you've never done a round robin before, they are a great way to stretch your quilting legs. And this one is small, so it won't cost you much in fabric. Here is the way it works:<br /><br />1. Everyone makes a center square. The square should be 6 inches finished, so be sure to include a 1/2 inch for seam allowances. Put the square into the envelope you received at the meeting (if you weren't there, it's fine; we'll have more at August's meeting).<br /><br />2. We'll swap envelopes. You will add a border to the block you get.<br /><br />3. We'll swap again. Lather, rinse, repeat until December when...<br /><br />4. You get your original block back with four borders (or other additions) by new friends!<br /><br />Here is a <a href="http://myfeeddogsaredown.blogspot.com/search/label/Round%20robin">link</a> to my personal blog -- this is everything I've posted in the category "round robin." You will see some completed quilts and some rows or blocks that I did individually. Keep in mind that some of the round robins I've been in have been row quilts, so instead of a bunch of borders, you'll see rows done by individuals and then put together. I'll be sure to bring some samples of round robins to the next meeting. If you have some samples of your own, please bring them for show and tell!<br /><br />Here are some questions I thought might come up:<br /><br />Q. Do I have to include fabric in my envelope?<br />A. Only if you want to.<br /><br />Q. What if I can't come to a meeting?<br />A. Send it along with someone else or drop it in the mail to our PO Box. Just make sure you mail it at least a week before.<br /><br />Q. What if I really don't want a certain color/style?<br />A. Just note it on the envelope. Try to not put too many restrictions on it, though. It's more fun when the sky is the limit. A quick "no Thimbleberries" or "I love batiks!" is fine.<br /><br />Q. I'm new and don't know what to do!<br />A. One of the officers would be happy to meet with you and go over some ideas. Round robins are supposed to be fun, not stressful. Of course, you want to make sure you are putting your best effort into what you're making.<br /><br />Any questions I didn't cover? Post a comment and I'll add it here.<br /><br />Let's go!Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0
