Hi, Everyone,
GREAT Mod Squad meeting on Saturday!
We began with our Flower (Flour) Power and/or Critters challenge and it was an amazing array of sewing power! It began with Linda's tipping her toe into English Paper Piecing and moved into Ruth's modern moth(?), followed by Becky's owl branch buddies, flowers, and brightly colored parrots and flowers. All very cool.
Sue's flower power was just plain Groovy a la 1970s, Joy's hedgehogs and squirrels hit the mark, and Gaye's turtles were bright and happy. Michelle used her floral fabrics to make a very different star and her checkerboard cardinals stood out. Trudy walked us through the evolution of her landscape through a window with a very contemplative cat enjoying the peaceful morning. Susan, using her out-of-the-box thinking, interpreted Flower as Flour and wowed us with two small quilts whose focal points were Cupcakes! And, we finished up with Annemarie's table runner of three cube-like snails. It was great to see how creative we can all be when challenged!
The challenge now was deciding on our next challenge. After much discussion and tossing ideas in and out, we finally agreed on a Book theme. You may choose a specific book title or the idea of books in a quilt - whatever strikes your fancy.
Our next meeting will be on Saturday, August 8th at 10 am (coffee at 9:30 am) at Annemarie Nelson's home in Charlton, MA. Thanks, Annemarie, for your generous offer!
I will send a reminder about a week before our meeting.
Stay well and enjoy the sunshine!
Sue
