FRESNO MODERN QUILT GUILD SAYS GOODBYE!

Well, we gave it a shot for a little over a year, but there just wasn't enough participation to continue, so the Fresno Modern Quilt Guild has disbanded!

I want to thank all of you hardcore members, who showed up month after month for your friendship and creativity!  And, I would also like to thank all of you that showed interest by coming to some of our meetings!

A huge thank you to Quilter's Paradise for their support and friendship by allowing us to use their store for our monthly meetings and mentioning us in their monthly newsletter.  All of you have been terrific!

It was a very fun and rewarding experience for me!  I made new friends, learned how to blog, and was inspired with all your beautiful quilts!

Wishing everyone inspiration on a daily basis!

FMQG Disbanding?

Hi Everyone,

If there is anyone that is interested in taking over the responsibility of our guild and building it's membership, please send me a comment on this blog or come to our final meeting on Saturday, March 30 from 2:00 - 5:00!

We've had a nice little run since January 2012, but there has not been enough interest or participation to keep the FMQG going. If there is a member who would like to breathe some fresh air and leadership into our guild, let us know!  We'd love to hear from you!

We, currently, have 29 members signed up, but we continue to only have 4 - 6 members show up every month.

I would like to thank everyone who has participated! You've been a very fun part of my quilting life!

Keep your creativity flowing!

Lynn

Brought back by popular demand. . . the pin cushion swap!

The Pin Cushion Swap at our December meeting was hugely popular and creative, so we decided to do it again!

If you'd like to participate, and we hope you do, bring your pin cushion in a paper bag to our Saturday, January 26th meeting from 2:00 until 5:00pm!

Start thinking about what kind of swap or project you'd like to do for our February meeting!  Some suggestions were coasters, pot holders, trivets, square table toppers, pet placemats or mug rugs!  Or, maybe, our next swamp will be anything you'd like to create!

Wishing you a very Happy New Year!
