Magnolia Workshop

Yesterday members of our group & some friends participated in a workshop taught by Kate Themel.  We learned how to create our magnolias using Kate's layering technique. A great time was had by all.  We are definitely looking forward to the second part next week - how to use machine quilting to enhance the appearance of our magnolias.

Here is a picture of Kate's class sample

Busy Week

Instead of our usual meeting, today a few of us decided to drive into New Haven to see our Indigo exhibit at 300 George Street.  The walls are a perfect fit for our collection.  The lighting is wonderful.  There is a lot of foot traffic. All in all a wonderful place to be.
