PEI Modern Quilt Guild August 2018 Sew-In

This Summer's temperatures have been unusually hot for Prince Edward Island. With almost 3 weeks of record temperatures and humidity, it was a relief to many, to finally see the temperatures drop after some big thunder showers. The weather in the coming weeks will still be warm, but more like what we've come to expect on the Island.

With the weather finally breaking, I think a lot of our members chose to spend some time outdoors, But a few of us got together for a fun day of sewing, and socializing.

Lucinda has been continuing her efforts to complete some UFO's (Unfinished Objects). This "Gift of Peace" cross-stitch is really coming along!!

Heather has been working on her "Quilter's Planner" magazine sampler.

Dawn was making curved flying geese borders for her "Morse Code" quilt. I can't wait to see it completed!!

Janice was seeing Blue!! She has been working on her "Patchwork Barn" Block of the Month by Edita Sitar, which was featured on "the Quilt Show".

Linda was doing some cutting and had these cut Cotton + Steel fabrics to share. Love those selvages!!

Cathy was playing with bonus HSTs (Half Square Triangles), from her upcoming "Make Modern" Skill Builder Quilt-Along.

Jean stopped in and stayed for bit too.

We had a lovely day together!! We always welcome visitors too, so stop in the next time we have a meeting or Sew-In. We'd love to see you.
